Stay Alert at Intersections
Did you know that half the people seriously injured on Lower Hutt’s roads are injured in crashes at intersections? Across the Wellington Region the figure is slightly less, around 40%.
We can all help to keep our roads safe, by staying alert and taking care at intersections.
Even if you have the right of way be aware that pedestrians, cyclists or other drivers may make a mistake and a slower speed can be the difference between a minor, serious or even fatal outcome.
So slow down, look carefully for pedestrians, cyclists and other vehicles approaching, and be ready to give way.
