Breaking the secret code ...🤨
Today I’m breaking the secret code of all responsible car, truck and motorbike drivers.
We have kept this secret to ourselves for so many years, all the while assuming (incorrectly) that others may have guessed it along the way.
Well they haven’t, so now I am being forced to break the code of silence.
Here we go … to all of those red light runners, the green (GO) light does come back, it really does.
All you have to do is wait a little bit and … ta dah!!! There it is.
That pretty green light that you all seem to think is not coming back magically reappears after a short period of time.
Please try this and you to will become our newest member into the secret club of safe and responsible drivers.
For the newest members of our responsible and safe drivers club, welcome.
However, to become fully fledged LIFE TIME members, you must also understand that the two sticks behind your steering wheel are the window wipers to be used on rainy days and also to clean your windscreen on days where there is glare from the sun and the ‘hidden’ INDICATOR.
Please learn which one is the indicator and use it for every corner you turn into and for every single merge into traffic – both left and right sides.
Once you have done that, you will automatically become a lifetime member of our very exclusive club.
But please remember, you have to be a consistent responsible driver to stay as a lifetime member of the responsible and safe drivers.

Police will be increasing visibility around the Swanson Station Park and Ride

We continue to ask anyone who has been victim to this offending to report this online or by calling 105.
And if you see suspicious activity, report it to Police by calling 111 if it’s happening now.
