Northlands Selfish & Dangerous Drivers

Ian Crayton-Brown from Northland Road Safety

This link takes you to an excellent snapshot from Inspector Wayne Ewers perspective doing a normal patrol out on one of northlands state highways and what he encountered during part of a shift. This would be typical of all his staff across the region on any given day of the year. Sadly this is one of the many reasons northland has a horrendous road toll. It is these stretches of roads that the serious crashes are occurring too frequently and I applaud the Police for deploying their staff appropriately. Granted other roads have idiots driving at unacceptable speeds too but get the registration numbers and pass them to Police. They are out targeting those stretches where the crashes, deaths and serious injuries are occurring.
