According to Granny Herald (Nov 14, pg 5), 8 people were killed on Waikato roads, between Labour weekend and Nov 10 alone. The death toll is much higher across the country and adds up year by year.
When is the government going to start protecting the public from the scourge of roads? With road policy that addresses both demand and supply, with tough love law enforcement.

#UncontactedIndigenous peoples & efforts to protect them
From the depths of Brazil’s Amazon to Indonesia’s rainforests, some of the world’s most isolated peoples are being squeezed by #roads, miners & drug traffickers—a crisis unfolding far from public view or effective state protection.

I was saddened to read this story headlining the #RNZ website this morning about the death of 19-year old Fyfa Dawson, killed while riding her bike through roadworks. Christchurch has a car problem and it should be a much safer place to commute by bike.
We’ve got a few separated cycleways, which are great. Everywhere else now is a dangerous double cab ute parade and our roadworks are still managing traffic by blocking off the road verges with traffic cones and forcing bikes into the flow of traffic. We’re even building new road intersections that ask commuter cyclists to get off the road and become pedestrians just to cross the intersection.
“the coroner found errors in the "vehicle-centric" design and implementation of the temporary traffic management plan largely caused the crash”
Things could be so much better.
I hope this verdict by the coroner means that changes are made and we don’t lose another Fyfa.
My deepest sympathies for Fyfa’s family.
