Fatality Free Friday
May 2nd 2025

We are proud to be a part of this year’s campaign with the Australian Road Safety Foundation’s
‘Fatality Free Friday’.
For us, it felt like our world had been ripped from beneath us and nothing will ever feel as surreal as being told your child would never be coming home 💔
Time stops.
You can’t breathe.
The life you knew before is no longer and our lives have never been the same.
Don’t let time stop for your family like it did to ours.
We all need to hold each other accountable.
Please choose road safety.
Slow down.
Stay alert.
Drive responsibly.

Harrison ‘Harry’ Payne had been 18 years & 22 days old when his life was tragically taken in a 4WD crash on Woorim Beach, Bribie Island on May 30th, 2021. Harry’s death could have been prevented, and we want to do everything in our power to prevent this happening to another young person or family.

Woorim Beach Bribie Island will always be a place of reflection for our family. Nearly four years ago Harry was taken from us in a preventable 4WD rollover driven by a reckless driver. Ariana MP for Pumicestone @ariana4pumicestone & Brent @brentmickelbergmp Transport Minister spent time with us at Woorim to discuss our plans on how we can make Woorim Beach a safer place for families and the community. We are excited about our plans and in conjunction with the QLD Government we are working on making this happen so we can honour Harry and implement real change. More information to follow 🙌 A massive thank you to Ariana & Brent for your incredible support ❤️

This weekend will be our fourth Easter without Harry. We urge you to drive safely on our roads & beaches over this period and make good choices. The consequences of your actions behind the wheel are real and can have a devastating impact on people’s lives.

The above photo was Harry on the morning of his 18th Birthday, this was one of the last breakfast’s we had with Harry before he was ripped away from us by a dangerous driver. Have a great Easter everyone, share Harry’s message and think about Harry when you are driving on our roads and beaches over this Easter period. ❤️ 🐰

Back in the day, these tv commercials were played everywhere.
Yes, they are confronting, they were meant to be.
They hit straight to the hearts and minds of communities all over Australia, even the world for highlighting the impact of road trauma on peoples lives.
As a mum who has lost her youngest child to road trauma, I truly believe these tv commercials should be streamed across all channels of media.
We see constant ads for gambling, lotto, horse racing etc warning you about “what you could be losing next.”
Well how about we start playing ads like these to our kids and start telling them what they and their families could lose if they drive like this?
These ads tell the real story behind road trauma.
The terror on the passengers face.
The terror in the Drs voice having to tell the parents their son won’t be coming home.
The terror in the mother’s scream hearing her son is gone.
If you’ve never seen these tv commercials, I recommend you head over to TAC Victoria (Transport Accident Commission) website and watch them.
If you have a new driver in your family, show them.
It just might save a life ❤️‍🩹
