Bus driver shortage on Waiheke Island
Hi neighbours, a bus driver shortage on Waiheke Island has forced some services to be cancelled.
The Waiheke Bus Company (WBC) told Auckland Transport, despite "big efforts" and a local recruitment campaign, there was still a lack of drivers which was affecting its ability to provide the full schedule of services on Waiheke. AT's Bus Services Manager Darek Koper said some services between Matiatia and Onetangi would have to be cancelled.

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37.8% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)

62.2% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
