Dont Rush Campaign
the 'Don't Rush' campaign is an initiative that deals with speeding of young people in NSW. It focuses on the consequences of speeding and how they outweigh the reasons young people speed. The campaign uses Tv ads, radio advertising, online banners and posters to reach its audience. It is an effective campaign because it shows the reality of what can happen when you speed.
