Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? ๐Ÿ›ป๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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

Poll: Do you know someone affected by this?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Family members caring for loved ones with dementia are having to book up to a year in advance for a day off as a crisis hits respite care availability across the Waikato.

Carers with no options to take a break are left facing a breakdown themselves, says one advocate.

Do you know someone affected by this? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
