E-scooter: NZ Import Safety Concerns and How it Affects You

Alex from Te Atatu Peninsula

Peter McRae is calling on authorities to promptly address “regulation, categorisation and commercial concerns” regarding the importation of E-scooters.

In a publicly-released commentary, Mr McRae identified issues in three specific areas:

- Appropriate design and resulting classification of E-scooters as vehicles for transportation, not toys.

- Risk management for the expected increase in future motorised scooter imports.

- Need for greater regulation and systemic collaboration to ensure rider safety (via helmets, speed, etc.) as well as ensure public safety.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
