bloody idiot driver
to the driver of the black 4WD who was tail gatting me at the begining of Akatarawa Rd on Sunday 04th August at around 6.40pm
YOU ALMOST HIT AND KILLED A CHILD WALKING ACROSS THE ZERBRA CROSSING by the brown owl shops.
the reason I had slown down was to allow this child to cross the crossing as per our road code, that doesn't give you the right to speed up and overtake me missing her by about 1 foot and scaring the life out of her.
I'm pretty sure the speed limit on that road is not 70km which you seemed to be going. you are very lucky I didn't get your plate because the police would have been having a chat to you
and thank goodness you didn't hit the child because that is something that you would have had to live with for the rest of your life and by the speed you were travelling at she would have been killed.
we all have moments where we get anrgy behind the wheel but MATE that was not cool!
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
