World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims – Sunday 15th November 2026
World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims takes place on Sunday 15th November 2026.

Every year, thousands of people are killed or seriously injured on roads in countries across the World. In Ireland, as our road deaths keep rising, so too does the sorrow and grief for the thousands of people affected by road traffic collision on our roads every year.
Across the World, we remember those who have been killed or seriously injured in road traffic collisions. We remember those who have died, those who survived, those who are grieving and those who responded to the emergency calls.
The ‘County Kerry Road Safety Working Group’, of which Kerry County Council, An Garda Síochána Kerry, the Road Safety Authority and other road safety partners are members of, invite the public to ‘Shine a Light’ in their window or porch on Sunday evening in remembering road traffic victims.
Churches across the county have also been invited to include special prayers in their services on Sunday.
Just as newspapers and magazines are paid for, digital editorial content will also have to be paid for.
