Zero tolerance on speeding drivers all year round as Kiwi cops get tough on motorists
Hi neighbours,
Do you sometimes drive a few kms over the speed limit? Road police have scrapped their speed buffer on Kiwi roads in favour of a no tolerance approach.
All motorists edging over the limit at any time of the year can now expect to be pulled over and possibly fined, national road policing manager Acting Superintendent Gini Welch confirmed on Friday.
It brings an end to a long-standing convention that law enforcement would let minor speeding breaches slide.
“We don’t have a threshold,” Welch told Stuff, “we don’t have anything other than the speed limit.
Previously, besides zero tolerance long weekends, it was understood police could exercise discretion up to 10kmh over the speed limit.

Fluoride Free Procession and Protest
Thursday 18th April at 11am.
Many Hawkes Bay residents will have seen notices and petitions that Fluoride Free Hawkes Bay have circulated. Hastings District Council added hydrofluorosilicic acid to our water supply without informed consent, and without warnings placed at the Flaxmere and Havelock Nth water distribution points. This toxic chemical is harmful to many but especially pregnant mothers and bottle-fed babies.
Fluoride Free New Zealand and NZDoctorsSOS have filed an injunction in the high Court contesting this action.
On Thurs residents are urged to meet at the Hastings Civic Square, and then at 1130am sharp proceed through the Hastings CBD, arriving at HDCouncil about 12noon where professional speakers, local and throughout New Zealand, will explain the problems with this recognised poison.
Please share this public notice to whanau, family and friends.
