The Ipswich District Crime Prevention unit is promoting both Seniors and Road Safety this week, whilst they attend many community events across the Ipswich District.
One such event was the Create Connect Expo at the North Ipswich Reserve, a joint venture between Ipswich City Council and U3A and West Moreton.
Ipswich Crime Prevention provided both Senior Week and Queensland Road Safety Week information to the Ipswich community focusing on drink and drug driving.
Though a few questions were focused on merging and how best to go through a round-a-bout, the most popular was, ‘when is it best to hand in ‘my’ licence?’
