OK, so Christchurch drivers obey the letter of the law more than Auckland drivers. This doesn't surprise me (bigger city, probably faster paced). Was any other road user or pedestrian put at risk because of the lack of strict adherance to the letter of the law? If not then this is just another case of drivers performing a manoeuvre that sheds no light on their competancy or lack of it.



I find it interesting is that I've gone from using my horn out of necessity for accident avoidance almost daily (often multiple times) to being able to count on the fingers of one hand the number of times I've done so in the past 6 months since moving to Tuakau. While my commute has gone from 17km to about 60km.
