Police disappointed by high number of drink drivers in Auckland

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

Police say they are disappointed by the high number of drink drivers they have nabbed around Auckland.

Officers handed out 1100 infringement notices and arrested 78 drivers this month.

They carried out more than 70 checkpoints and breath tested nearly 14,000 people.

Police are planning more checkpoints over summer.

They have warned drivers to plan ahead and to avoid driving impaired.

Library Closure

Ron from Motueka

I wonder what goes on in the heads of the TDC personal when they spend $5 million on the new Motueka Library and are now talking about closing it on weekends when staff are sick and possibly 1 week day With winter just round the corner days getting colder the library is a meeting place the only place where one can go on a cold day to read borrow books or attend on of the many gatherings that are alway on in the library
Perhaps they should have not built the library as the old building sits empty and given themselves a big bonus for running the TDC as a vibrant council
When will these people pull there head out of the sand and run the council as a successful business as a not as a group of infants
We as those who like to live in this area its time to wake up and get rid of this riffraff and elect people who know how to run local bodies successfully
