[bogan]

Whats a few seconds of having to slow down costing you in the long run, sweet fuck all thats what.

Few seconds? takes me 8 days to get the van up to the 'speed limit'

It's currently 20 km/hr when passing a school bus with passengers entering or exiting, on either side of the road. SO traffic in both directions has to slow to 20 km/hr. It's not hard. Just do it. You surely don't need signs to remind you that kids are unpredictable and worth something and you should avoid killing them at all costs?

Oh, sorry, my mistake, this is NZ where children are property and physical and emotional punching bags.

I may agree with you in part James, but I also see the other side of them, where they put themselves (kids) at obvious risk of being killed or maimed on literally a daily basis. Regardless of lights, bells 'locking' safety gates, or simply being on the corridor.

But your a wanker too, so I don't care.

For ALL KB Wankers!

old non-turbo diesel is it?
I fucking hated traffic lights with double lanes when driving them... all the fuckers you just overtook cause they're dawdling along at 80 decide instead of doing the right thing & getting in behind cause clearly the van that just blew past them a k or so back is the faster vehicle, they would get beside & make the whole process start again due to them having the faster acceleration
Even worse when those double lanes ended into single

That right there is just another reason to dislike the French.

I was pointing it out to somebody who appeared not to know...

Indeed. And it's also lucky that Akaroa isn't the capital.

Wow, what was this thread about again?

I only just caught up with this one and had to sift through 20 pages of so much shit its giving me a headache. (And here i am adding to it, i know).

Anyway, that video that Gremlin posted way back on page 3 (i think) just shows the blatant ignorance of the reason for the high death toll here. And that is simply shit drivers.
(Unfortunately this is being proved lately by an influx of Chinese tourists who cant drive for shit causing accidents left, right and centre.)

How can we make accidents less deadly, reduce the speed limit/tolerance? How about improving the driving standard so those accidents dont happen in the first place. Simple.

Its a joke how easy it is to get a licence here. Just look at the road tolls by country per capita.
Countries with higher speed limits and busier roads are staying safer because the drivers are better and they're not allowed on the road (alone) until they prove it.

Thats my rant anyway.
