Safe jumpstart
We kiwis love to lend a helping hand, to be that one good "bugger"; but it's better to be cautious.
To check rego plates using carjam.co.nz and NZ Police websites is a part of our protocol for any car found incorrectly parked, on a weird spot, potentially abandoned, damaged or with people inside and lights off. It's not a "stolen vehicle" procedure but more a "vehicle worthing attention" thing, anyway we advise you to use the same protocol specially if you're going to help an unknown person, on a lonely street, late night and with no lights to see as it was the case last night.
We decided to use these photos, with consent of the person on them, to show another service we give during our patrols: we try to help members of our Community. We want to build stronger ties among our neighbours and encourage solidarity with our example.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
