As the evenings grow darker and the roads become
more challenging, we remember those we have lost,
those who are grieving, and the importance of
protecting every life on our roads.
November Remember — The 10 Do's and Don'ts
Our Shared Responsibility
Every journey matters.
Every life matters.
November brings darker evenings, rain, fog
and slippery roads. It is a time to slow down,
remain alert and show consideration for
everyone sharing our roads.
Our 10 Do's and Don'ts
are simple reminders of the choices we can
make to keep ourselves, our passengers and
other road users safe.
Please take a moment to read the poster,
reflect on its message and share it with
someone you care about.
Ten important reminders. One shared goal:
to make sure everyone arrives home safely.
?
1. DO slow down
November brings darker evenings, rain,
fog and slippery roads. Give yourself time
to react and arrive safely.

2. DON'T let speed decide your fate
The posted speed limit is a maximum,
not a target. On Donegal's winding, rural
roads, the safe speed may be considerably lower.
?
3. DO drive sober
If you are driving, alcohol and drugs
have no place in your system. Plan your
journey before you go out.
×
4. DON'T drive tired
Fatigue can be as dangerous as other
forms of impairment. If you are struggling
to stay awake, stop somewhere safe and
take a proper break.
?
5. DO put the phone away
A message, notification or phone call
can wait. Your attention belongs on this road.
×
6. DON'T overtake unless it is safe
Blind bends, hill junctions and narrow
rural roads leave little room for error.
One impatient decision can change several lives.
?
7. DO look out for vulnerable road users
Give cyclists, pedestrians, motorcyclists,
horse riders and other road users plenty
of space and patience.
×
8. DON'T drive aggressively
Tailgating, dangerous overtaking and
road rage put everyone at risk. Getting
there safely matters more than getting there first.
?
9. DO check your car before travelling
Tyres, lights, brakes, wipers and
windscreen visibility matter even more
as winter approaches. Make sure everyone
is wearing a seat belt.
×
10. DON'T forget the people with you and those waiting at home
Every journey involves more than the
person behind the wheel. You might have
passengers; and someone is waiting for
you to come home.

Burt on the Web The
Burt page on The Donegal Genealogy Resources website has recently
been updated to include extensive details of Burt Cemetery. A large
number of headstone inscriptions, including photographs, family
links and also some links to the 1911 Census have all been added.
Every effort has been made to catalogue and identify as many graves
as possible in the Burt Graveyard, in an effort to help preserve
the identities and locations of the people buried there for future
generations and also to enable emigrants from Burt to find and see
their Family graves. See http://freepages.genealogy.
