NZ safety issue

Shalini from Avondale

Hi all, I would like to share this incident which happened with me and my friends just now on Great North Road, near Awaroa road cemetery.So I was driving back from my friend’s funeral in Henderson. I was driving towards Lynnmall and a car came parallel to me and throw a live firecracker with heavy smoke and sparkle in my car. It was so much smoke in my car I couldn’t see anything. I immediately pulled over toward median line. Drivers on the right side were honking horn on me without knowing the reason I was so scared. What is happening to NZ safety
