Please be safe while driving
A teen killed in a Christchurch crash has been named, and emergency services have been responding to crashes in Ohakune, Abel Tasman National Park and Lake Ohia in Northland.
We’re officially at a road death rate of one a day so far this year. Stay safe, don’t speed, be sober, belt up, and throw your phone in the boot.
NZ consistently has the worst drivers I've ever had the horror of driving with. Purposely speeding up on passing places. Driving erratically. Levels of entitlement over 9000.
No respect for other road users and a mentality similar to housing. "I've got mine so screw the rest of you"
Surprised the death toll isn't far higher.
Road to zero has been an absolute failure so far.
But if they reduce the speed limit to zero that should put paid to many of the problems.
I do hear talk of reducing rural roads in my region to 70-80kph (which they’ve already done on long straight sections of state highway) and I find it’s made it worse because people are now behaving even less rationally than they used to.
They're absolutely delusional if they think those limits will be obeyed.
Yes, instead of being negative about it, we could promote the number of deaths in an aspirational way. Treat it like GDP - the more the better. It's a sign of a vibrant economy.
You consistently have some of the dumbest takes I've ever heard, keep up the good work.
