Poll: Do we need better testing of drug-drivers?

Reporter The Timaru Herald

Ministry of Transport has said better testing is urgently needed as "an important part of making our roads safer".

In 2018, 71 people were killed in crashes where a driver was found to have drugs or medication in their system, which could have impaired their driving.

It is said that in order for testing to be effective, it has to be conducted at "sufficiently intense levels and in a highly visible manner".

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
