The inaugural meeting of the new Road Safety Youth Forum was held at the Ombudsman for Children's office in Dublin.
The members were nominated by a number of youth organisations, while others were invited to participate based on road safety related projects they had carried out. "They are also experiencing trauma because they are losing some of their friends and family in road crashes, so we want to hear from them."
She hoped the forum can help to reduce deaths and crashes on the roads because"it has been so terrifying lately how many there have been happening."
