Road Safety Week
Auckland's Harbour Bridge will shimmer yellow this week to mark Road Safety Week.
The Yellow Ribbon Alliance, a group of firms raising awareness of road trauma, is promoting use of the colour to highlight road safety.
Road Safety Week participants can show their support by wearing yellow or donning a yellow ribbon pin.
Members of the public are invited to go yellow to show their support.
Organisations will be reminding drivers to stick below the speed limit, especially around schools and communities, and to adhere to the 20 km/h limit for passing a school bus.
School students are busy making posters reminding drivers to slow down, and will be dressed in yellow.
In its 10th year, the annual week will focus on speed with the Streets for Life theme.
More than 80,000 speed notices were issued around schools last year.
One in four people killed on New Zealand roads were in a crash where someone drove too fast for the conditions.
Speeding was a contributing factor in 79 fatal crashes and 424 serious injury crashes last year.
In 2020, more than 4000 speed notices and more than 80,000 speed camera notices were issued for offences near schools during school hours.
