Driver Reviver on State Highway 1 in Hurunui this Easter Monday
AMI's Driver Reviver – a public event to educate drivers on the connection between driver fatigue and crashes – will be held on Monday, April 10 from 2pm to 4pm at the Hurunui River rest area on SH1.
Anyone on the road at the time is encouraged to stop in for a complimentary snack and drink from the AMI BBQ Trailer, and a barista coffee from the coffee car. Visitors can take a rest on a bean bag or visit the activities onsite to learn more about how to curb the effects of driver fatigue, particularly on long journeys.
The AMI Driver Reviver event is a collaboration with local police, the Hurunui District Council, Downers, Fire and Emergency New Zealand and St John, with strong support from Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency, and Satisfy Food Rescue.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
