National Slow Down Day underway

A National Slow Down Day is being held today, aimed at reducing road deaths caused by speeding.

The initiative hopes to curb rising road deaths, which currently stands at 127.

Superintendent Liam Geraghty says drivers must also be aware of changing road conditions:
