CampaignerFor almost two decades Rosemary has been campaigning for young driver education to be introduced in schools across the country. Her continuous lobbying of successive governments has brought about significant advances in the development of road safety measures in both education and policy but she is still campaigning for a proper educational programme for young drivers to be implemented at secondary level.

EducatorThe Rosemary Smith "Think Awareness Transition Year programme was originally developed on a model which Rosemary came across in the United States. The course has been refined with input from similar programs across Europe and tailored to work with Irish teenagers. The basic premise of the programme is to educate young drivers before they reach age 17 when they can hold a learner permit.
