    Thumbs down Esmonde Road on-ramp, bus only lane


    To the rider I keep seeing heading along Esmonde Rd (in Takapuna, Auckland) and onto the on ramp heading towards Auckland City in the lane labelled "Bus Only" then via the special bus transport lanes before crossing onto the motorway - mate your going to cop a big ticket one day.

    I'm pretty sure you can't ride in lanes labelled "Bus Only", and especially not move across the special bus transit lanes along the motorway.

    I don't know what the size of the ticket would be, but you really stand out being the only non-bus vehicle in those lanes and that area of the motorway. And if you stand out to me, your definitely going to stand out to any patrolling Police car.

    Also, have you seen how fast those buses go in those lanes!!

    Would not want to be on the wrong side of a careering bus as it tries (pushes) to merge into the bridge traffic...

    We should applaud people like this. Council & Transit (or whatever this defunct org are now called) are the enemy. Seek and destroy.
