    never mind better / compulsory driver training, better roading structure to accomodate pedestrians, bicycles and public transport next to private and commercial transport, never mind better and more varied structure of speed limits etcetc....lets become a nation of driverless car drivers.

    Mr. Simon Bridges, Minister of Transport is very keen on that

    http://www.stuff.co.nz/motoring/news...rless-vehicles

    The authority announced this week that it was developing new rules for flying drones.

    Bridges said private companies would probably be at the forefront of developing this technology. But the Government had a responsibility to ensure the regulatory environment allowed the technology to develop as quickly as possible.

    "We need to make sure we're thinking about . . . how [drones] interact with [piloted] planes, for example, from a safety perspective," he said. "You want to be ahead of the curve on these things."

    The ministry briefing also pointed out the Government would need to be awake to developments in driverless cars, as well as new technologies that would eventually allow vehicles to share information about their speed and direction, warning them when evasive action was needed.

    "It is unlikely that road crashes will ever disappear completely, but the scope for human error - which is a factor in most crashes - will reduce significantly," the paper said.

    "The road toll could be significantly lower as a result of safety features in new cars, which may be so advanced that they are nearly impossible to crash."

    Bridges said driverless cars would be able to travel safely at higher speeds with less separation between them, increasing the capacity of our roads.

    He agreed the Government needed to keep pace with the technology to establish this country as a test-bed for some of these innovations.

    "There's no reason why we can't actually go out to the world and, to some extent, have some leadership on these things."

    Tell you something scumdog, I usually (regardless of whether I feel the rules being enforced are fair, or not) have respect for yourself and Rastus, and dont resort to personal attacks....

    Obviously enough noise to dissuade the decision makers from digging themselves a hole.

    Anyway they're still playing the stupid ad that suggests that because someone was travelling at a bit under 110 indicated on their speedo (so in the real world a wee smidge over the legal limit) they are somehow at fault for someone pulling out in front of them with far less than the stopping distance at 100k between them. Let's not focus on the fact that the real cause of accidents is that a large percentage of the population drive like fucktards.

    Hmmm look, I was merely pointing out everybody is rearing up before the event has actually happened - and it is unlikley to happen IMHO.

    Yeah, dumb arse ad that - and if anything it should have focussed more on the idiot that pulled out of the side-road.

    Victim mentality is valued more than the truth. The whole load of bullshit was a media beat up of the highest order, designed to make the Police look like a bunch of meanies. Meanwhile the general public looks like a bunch of 5 year old Remuera kids who've had their Playstation taken away.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Ok Thank you, and apology for that 'post'. You can stop trying to perform 'puppetry of the penis' now

    It's not a 'chicken little' syndrome.
    We KNOW this is how officialdom operates. Try it on, and see how the pleb's react. If they dont? "got the bastards". If they do? Go back to what we intended at the start..
    Just like the Bikoi, we gained NOTHING, and then went away celebrating!

    and we aint gained jack shit this time either.
