AUCKLAND TRANSPORT CHEATS

Linda from Henderson

There is an increasingly large group of aimless youths who are hopping on the 14W and 14T bus service from New Lynn to Westgate.
The bus driver is often alone on the bus, and when asked to swipe their AT Hop card, the excuse is " I ain't got no money cuz" They refuse to disembark.
My concern is for the driver, as if he insists on payment he could very easily be overcome and end up in a nasty situation.
I have emailed Auckland Transport over this matter. A possible solution would be to cancel every second one of the almost empty buses and put the unneeded driver on as security for the in-service bus.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
