[/QUOTE]One wet bus ticket awarded, and the very reason we have repeat offenders constantly killing people in our country on the roads.

Daddy will pay for it................................ well that drives it home - no reg, no wof and on and on for Timmy!
And this is standard stuff too. What are we - the capital of semi wet bus ticket slaps?
How was it Naive in November - bike-oi got results, I thought .
But maybe midst the vote catching behaviour there is the occasional pollie effort to do something useful. All this talk of rebranding the party might suggest they look for some points of difference. Prolly a wasted effort working on pollies - but maybe you've got to be in to win? Anyway interest has dried up, and I see some better ideas to get change on other threads, so signing off this one too.
Ronin, we can actually afford a lot more safety engineering than they are doing. I saw somewhere how only a small rise in charges levied on road users can achieve a lot road safety wise. It was a pittance really - that I think most would be happy to pay. Our long network is a problem, but I can't see why we couldn't afford to spruce up the main ones full length like sh1 and sh2. Apparently this was commenced with road widening a few decades ago, but never completed. IRAP program may bring about better prioritising.
Anyway, off to watch the intersection ads and ads telling me to buy an elecronic stability car (thanks NZTA - I'll be down the dealers tomorrow), good ads they assume I'm blind and/or don't know the road code or how to drive. TV will surely larn me - like Timmy.
