Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
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?
-
32.6% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)

67.4% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Selling property experience with Trade M
Property Market valuations and rental assessments
I have had the worst experience with Trade Me forcing their valuation and rental assessments onto my listing. These people have not much knowledge about property figures. My contact partner from Trade Me forced his extremely questionable figures several times onto my listing. Trade Me did not tell the truth in their counter submission to the court they stated that they changed the data only once. In the hearing I could prove them wrong so I would call this a blunt lie. The counter submission was not signed, so this can come only from a coward. It came out of the hearing that this is a matter for the Commerce Commission and that is my next step. I have never encountered that much rudeness and incompetence in my life as I have with that Senior Account Manager from Trade Me Property. Here is one example among many others. Trade Me swapped by accident the data for two properties. This seems to be a harmless mistake, but it is not when they were told politely about this and only answered with nastiness and stuck to their mistake.
Do you intend to sell your property? If yes before you list with Trade Me ask for my huge file complaining about Trade Me to the Commerce Commission. A donation of $10 will be appreciated as I have invested a lot into this matter. You may think twice of ever listing any property with Trade Me.
