Whats with these honey traps at road works, one way out and at the end the boys in blue ?

Already been inconvenienced because of the diversion and further inconvenienced by being stopped for a WOF
and rego check. With 2% of all road fatalities due to a non WOF standard vehicle go and do some real work
like getting more drunk drivers off the road. Sheer revenue gathering to pay for earthquake damage.

Have some heart, 11,000 plus earthquakes, I for one out of many are still waiting for EQC payments going into the fourth year.

If you have to continue your senseless "WOF campaign" (Why do you think Key had the sense to bring WOF's out to once a year
for certain year vehicles) don't use the aftermath of the earthquakes to do your dirty work.

Pot, Kettle, Black

But you're right, in no way shape of form will that money go towards earthquake damage.

Who cares if does not go to the earthquakes in the end - revenue gathering anyway - you missed the main point - of having no morals !

But he did hit the nail on the head about the lack of repairs to the roads...
(Although all the reasons my car has needed repaired/has failed a wof since the earthquakes has been earthquake damage due to the roads - I'd be a little frustrated if I was pinged for that...)

How about you give us a breakdown on what they do vs "real work" some percentages and proper facts rather than just making shit up

You missed the main point of not talking out your arse on where the money goes

Whats the percentage of roads repaired vs those that are still waiting to be done and the rate at which they're being done?

From the scrit website, about 18% (lets call it 20%) of the road have been redone.
Which is good.
Until you see the state of the 'repaired' roads - a lot of what has been done are temporary fixes, and a lot of patches (doesn't make for a smooth ride/drive) and much of the new roading, in my area at least, has been done worse than the earthquake left it, or has become damaged again through it not being done to a reasonable grade (again, a lot of it is a temporary fix)

So, 20% done in near 3 years, we'll be really generous and say 10% a year? So a ten year repair cycle, not including what will need to be redone (a lot)

I started work as a Real Policeman yesterday. Supervising a group of General Duties Constables.

An hour and 9 minutes later, one of our bikes went up in flames.

I may just go back to my bike job. I think it was an omen.
