Here you'll find material produced by Poetic Justice for campaigns. It's a mixure of parodies and poetry but each piece is designed to get a message across to the public in a unique and emotive way. Some of the work has been already adopted by 95 Alive and is available in various formats, other material is currently on the site only.
If you work for an organisation interested or involved in promoting safety on the roads and reducing road deaths and you think any material on this site could be of use in a campaign you're running, please email me at
Alternatively
if you're running a
campaign on a topic I've not
already covered and would like a poem or parody related to it
composing, just let me know. All lyrics and poems are copyrighted and may not be reproduced in any format without prior permission from me.
As
used by 95 Alive and North Yorkshire Police in their 2008 Christmas
Drink Drive Campaign, this poem tells the story of a young
lad who had a pint too many, just the one, not a hardened drink driver,
but someone who's made a mistake, and the dreadful consequences it has.
Step into the shoes of 6 different people affected by that pint, and see how their worlds change...

A twist on a classic love poem, adopted by 95 Alive for their Valentine's Day Campaign, If you've someone special in your life, and you don't wear your seatbelt for yourself... wear it for them...

A pair of poems between a couple so in
love
on a very special day of the year, the day for romance. A time where
nothing should be left unsaid...
A slightly different version of Drive by
The Cars, still asking the all important question - Who's gonna drive
you home tonight?
When you think of the improvement in
cycle lights
from those huge D cell powered bricks that gave you a bad back carrying
them, to the modern bright LED ones that fit lightly in your pocket,
there's no excuse for cycling without lights - sadly though, as in the
case of this lad, people still do it
Phones ringing or beeping when you're
driving are so
tempting to answer... Here's what may happen if you give in to their
demands to be answered
This lad was Getting Around like the
Beach Boys, till he did a ton right past a speed cop - from Leathers to
Lycra in the blink of a Magistrate's eye...
A short prayer from a motorist, or at
least, what the traffic cops would like motorists to pray for!
A Modern Age Driver prays for an end to
the stereotypical 'White Van Man'
It's not just young men who drink and
drive, as this family found out
A look at Abba's infamous sing S.O.S.
telling the story of someone caught out drug driving by F.I.T (Field
Impairment Testing) 
How an innocent drive can end in such devastating
way in the blink of an eye, through showing off that touch too much.
