Crash causing delays, State Highway 2 Upper Hutt (SH2 northbound)

Andrew from Birchville

Massively impressed by the work of a drain laying crew, who took control at this crash site before Police and Ambulance services had arrived. They were helping get cars out of the way and directing traffic. Not sure which company they worked for, but these guys stepped up

NZ Civil Defence are testing the Emergency Mobile Alert (EMA) system on Sunday 25 May, between 6-7pm ⚠️📲

If you have a hidden second phone for your safety, we recommend turning it off or putting it in flight mode for the duration of the test (6-7pm on Sunday 25 May) to ensure it’s not discovered when the nationwide Emergency Mobile Alert is sent.

Some mobile devices set to silent mode will still emit a sound when the Emergency Mobile Alert test is sent, so switching to flight mode or turning off your device is the only way to avoid the loud sound of the alert.

You can find more information about the Emergency Mobile Alert system, including a factsheet and list of FAQs at www.getready.co.nz

Poll: Is it illegal to have fog lights on when there's no fog?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The answer is yes, it is illegal. And yet in New Zealand it's fairly common to see drivers hitting the road with their fog lights on when it's simply dark.

Those who have sat their written drivers test recently will be in the know, but be honest, did you know it was illegal?

Trentham Camp trees

Dennis & Maureen from Trentham

Why have all the large trees inside the camp been cut down, what species were they and are they protected ? Cannot see a valid reason for this destruction unless the roots were causing a problem which appears unlikely given the location of most of the trees. Assume that the Defence Force are exempt… View moreWhy have all the large trees inside the camp been cut down, what species were they and are they protected ?
