Dangerous dumb arse drivers

Lance from Paraparaumu

I’m kinda over hearing reckless, dangerous, wheel spinning driving travelling way to fast in and around Paraparaumu and just general selfish brainless driving.
I understand this problem is everywhere but I’m setting up cameras and will be reporting this to the police. I’d appreciate the power of the people (no doubt I’m not the only one getting over this issue) to join in project “pull ya head in”.
Hey I love Motorsport and cars but don’t be a dumb arse, get a go Kart or use Mansfield race track and really enjoy/push it plus it’s way more fun!
If you think the local streets is your play area you will get reported!! I know I’m up to a no mercy no excuses point. I will also be taking plates and ensuring your car /bike is under the appropriate decibel level. Maybe we could start up a neighbourhood nuisance car drivers register? Good old name and shame!

Six tips for improving security around your home

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

1) Improve outdoor lighting
Ensure that streets, driveways, and front yards are well-lit. Motion-sensor lights around homes deter trespassers by reducing hiding spots and illuminating their movements.

2) Trim your trees
Overgrown shrubs and trees provide cover for intruders. Keeping them well-trimmed around windows and doors improves visibility and reduces potential hiding spots.

3) Secure Entry Points
Ensure doors, windows, and gates are always closed when you are away from the house. Upgrade to more secure locks, deadbolts, or even smart locks for added protection.

4) Add a security camera
Place security cameras in the main entry points to your home. Doorbell cameras are also relatively cheap and a great way to keep track of who is visiting your home when you aren't there.

5) Start a Neighborhood Watch Program
You could reach out to members on Neighbourly to form a group of neighbors who can regularly keep an eye out for suspicious activity and report it. You could also check with Neighbourhood Support to see what is existing in your area.

6) Introduce yourself to your neighbours
The closer you are to your neighbors, the more likely they’ll notice when something unusual or suspicious is happening around your property

Feel free to share anything that you do around your area to deter crime.
