Police are noticing a rise in incidents involving people riding dirt bikes in an unsafe and dangerous manner around Hamilton City.

Riding motorcycles or dirt bikes in dangerous and anti-social ways is unacceptable. It puts not only the rider but other members of our community at risk.

On Tuesday, Police were called to a single vehicle crash on Hukanui Road, Hamilton, where a dirt bike rider was seriously injured after coming off his bike around 2:15pm.

Police will be making further enquires into these types of behaviours and will take enforcement action where necessary.

We are asking the public to help us, by reporting any unsafe or dangerous behaviour.

If you witness any riding behaviour that could put anybody at risk, please call 111 if it is happening now, or 105 if it is after the fact.

Gain as much information as you are safely able to, including the type of activity, any descriptions of the bikes and riders, and any photos or video footage.

If Police are not able to attend these incidents immediately, follow-up action will be taken.

Have you seen this kind of behaviour in the supermarket?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

OPINION: The air of light-hearted joy, combined with purpose, as she bustled down the supermarket aisle set her apart.

Amid the weekend morning shoppers, slump-shouldered as they dutifully knocked off another chore by getting the groceries, she swaggered.

All Blacks star Wallace Sititi is set to make a surprise early return from injury for the Chiefs prior to the Super Rugby Pacific playoffs.

The dynamic loose forward, who stormed onto the scene in 2024, so much so that he went on to be crowned World Rugby Breakthrough Player of the Year, as well as All Blacks Player of the Year, picked up a knee injury on the national side’s end-of-year northern tour that had initially seemed destined to keep him out of the entire Super season.
