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.

Age Well Kiwi

Mabel from Hillsborough

We are a new support group for seniors. We meet once a month to share our experience and discuss our challenges & concerns.

With the growth of our ageing population, and more seniors living alone, this group would explore and advocate/address the social, emotional and physical needs of our seniors, and promote positive and healthy ageing.

We meet on the first Saturday afternoon of the month in Mt. Roskill. Our next meeting will be 3 Jan 2026.

If you are interested in joining us and contribute your ideas, knowledge, experience, talents and resources, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us at agewellkiwi@gmail.com.
