New Partnership with the NZ Road Transport Hall of Fame Announced
The NZ Road Transport Hall of Fame is proud to support Street Smart driven by Tony Quinn Foundation Road Safety.
A new partnership in 2024, the collaboration stems from similar values – making sure people stay safe on our roads.
"A big focus for all of us involved in the road transport industry is making sure our drivers get home safely at the end of each day, so choosing Street Smart as the new Hall of Fame charity completely aligned with this,” HW Richardson Group chief executive Anthony Jones said.
“It couldn’t be more fitting given the influence those attending the NZ Road Transport Hall of Fame, have had on making our roads safer."
Road crashes are one of the leading causes of death and serious injury for young people with youth vehicle accident fatalities in New Zealand amongst the highest in the OECD.
Street Smart driven by Tony Quinn Foundation Road Safety is a world-class, best practice, cognitive, insight (learn by doing) based driver programme that aims to positively influence the lives of young kiwis across the country.
This year, the NZ Road Transport Hall of Fame donated $40,000 from the event to Street Smart, and the team behind the event are already in planning mode for 2025 and beyond, with even more planned as part of the annual celebration.
