Do you know how to give way in an emergency? ๐Ÿšจ

The Team from New Zealand Police

Weโ€™re here to remind you about what to do when you see, or hear, an emergency services vehicle responding under lights and sirens. When seconds count, it can save lives.

Weโ€™ve had recent examples where drivers completely ignore the Police vehicle behind them. Other drivers slow right down without safely pulling over, and delay Police from responding to emergency situations. Please help us by allowing our team to get to those in need, so we can save lives.

Top tips when an emergency services vehicle approaches with lights and sirens:
๐Ÿš‘ You are required by law to pull to the side of the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
๐Ÿš” If the lights and siren of the Police vehicle continue past you, you can resume your journey.
๐Ÿš’ Make sure you check the road is clear before moving on.

Poll: What should happen to the cathedral?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In August, restoration of the Christ Church Cathedral was put on hold. Church leaders have no idea when work might restart.

Last year, the Government declined to provide further funding beyond $25 million, and the church, who had raised $24m in donations and contributed $49m including insurance, said further public support will be required to find the revenue required.

What do you think the next steps should be for the cathedral?
