A petition seeking law reform on foreign drivers on New Zealand roads is to be presented to parliament on February 14.
In 2016, 25 people died in NZ in a vehicle accident which involved overseas drivers.
Should Foreign drivers sit some kind of driving test before being allowed to drive in NZ?

This one is pretty simple. You're a Neighbourly member so connecting with your community is obviously pretty important to you. So this tip is more of a challenge; this year (or this weekend!) make it your mission to meet someone new living near you.

Here's a few things you can do to get you started:
- use the Neighbours Directory to find neighbours on your street.
- introduce yourself on Neighbourly to those living in your neighbourhood. Just a few words about yourself and what brought you here.
- Give something away or sell something! A Neighbourly exchange gives you a chance to meet someone new.
- just head out the door and knock on someone else's!
