Drive Alive
Moira Winslow's life was horribly altered in 1985 when she lost her daughter (28), son (13) and two grandchildren (2 & 4) in an horrific car accident. Through her efforts, DRIVE ALIVE was born in 1999 and is the only non-profit organization involved in road safety in South Africa. The main traffic offences in South Africa are speeding, alcohol, vehicle/driver fitness and people not using seatbelts.
