The fast spread of HIV is a result of unsafe sex and therefore people are instructed to use condoms. However, each day sees quite a large number of people getting infected.
Countless media campaigns can not stress it enough that people should not drink and drive. But a very astonishing percenatge of road accidents in South Africa is a cause of people driving while under the influence of alcohol and drugs.
