Do you loathe speed bumps?

Neil from Thorndon

This letter re speed bumps was declined by the Post but l think it makes a valid point.
Neil Harrap

Dark night, poor light, motorcyclist going just a little too fast. She doesn't realise that the speed bump on the steepest part of Hill Street is 30cm (12 inches) high.

Bike and rider get launched into an unexpected, rotating crash. It doesn't end well, broken neck, early death...

Some of the new speed bumps are a health and safety disaster just waiting to happen.

Poll: Are swear words no longer?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In 2023, Apple amended its autocorrect function to allow Iphone users to freely use their intended word without mentioning 'ducks'. Is this a sign of the times? Are swear words no longer taboo in our communities or workplaces?

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.
