Sharing our story is painful, but if it makes even one person think twice on the road, then it&#8217;s worth it,&#8221; Karen said.<\/p>\n<p>Journalist and TV personality Jacqui Felgate has joined the initiative to amplify voices such as Karen&#8217;s and urge Victorians to reflect on the individual choices they make behind the wheel, and to be road safety leaders and advocates within their communities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Road trauma is more than tragic headlines. I&#8217;m supporting The Hardest Share because I want people to see the human side of every road crash statistic &#8211; and to choose care over complacency,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, head to <a href=\"http:\/\/tac.vic.gov.au\/road-safety\/tac-campaigns\/the-hardest-share\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tac.vic.gov.au\/road-safety\/tac-campaigns\/the-hardest-share<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Transport Accident Commission (TAC) has launched a powerful new initiative highlighting the profound and lasting impact of road trauma.
