Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Have you been through Hillcrest recently?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Changes to a busy road in Hillcrest are being reviewed before they’re even finished after they “horrified” residents and shop-owners.

Local Murray Brown’s up in arms about the new layout on Cambridge Rd. Parking spaces have disappeared near Hillcrest Stadium and nearby shops, and he says the configuration leaves drivers backing out of parking spaces into oncoming traffic that they can’t see - which includes trucks and double-decker buses.

Have you been through Hillcrest recently? Tell us what you thought of the changes in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
