Mad nagging bitch!
Apparently our wonderful WRB system is working well again...not!
A truck has ploughed through the barrier and taken out a car in the Takanini area.
When will our roading authority (can never remember their name as it changes so often) wake up and smell the roses?
WRB is NOT a safety barrier, it is an illusion of one.

Oh no! Surely not, a truck has not been stopped by a WRB? It cant be true!
Yep, these things are the best median dividers around...NOT!

The instructions are simple...
These things are aka WRSB. (....safety...)
And often referred to as WRuSB. Which is much more accurate.
Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

WE got a lot on the kapati coast and thay are not SAFE ...When will the dicks heed the call to stop putting them up.
Mad nagging bitch!
As long as we only bitch about these things to each other, nothing will change.WE got a lot on the kapati coast and thay are not SAFE ...
We need to get out there and get Mr Joe Public on our side, we need to keep lobbying our MP's (new blood to tackle there), we need to keep making noises...loudly!
Oh, and we need to organise more protest rides and be more vocal. A LOT MORE VOCAL!!

the truck sure made a mess
not to mention the traffic problems caused.............
lucky the barrier thingy was there eh or it could have been serious
Mad nagging bitch!
You are taking the piss, aren't you?
A person minding his own business, legitimately driving in his lane is now in a serious condition in hospital with life threatening injuries because NZTA (or whatever they are currently called), in its infinite wisdom, using shonky practices, installed a "safety" barrier that is not only not designed for use on roads like that, but is banned in several countries because of the damage caused when one fails...all for the sake of a few dollars saved up front!
I'm sure the guy who is fighting for his life agrees with you...

Seems everytime I head Wellington way I see a section of it's been mown down and in need of repair, they might be cheaper to put up but there is certainly on going cost involved. They should look for the best solution not the cheapest one anyway.
