The Talk
Section 1 – The government shows its hand
- NZPA: “Driver licensing changes mulled”
The government shows its hand with ‘Safer Journeys’ - Waikato Times: “700 tickets in seven hours”
Still, we’re on this speed camera track, but… - AA Directions: “Why do we crash?”
Speed cameras barely help to lower the road toll!!
Section 2 – Turn about
- NZPA: “Right hand rule not the right rule – AA”
Give me a break. Shoddy logic abounds. - NZ Government: “Safer Journeys”
Even the government can’t decide what rules to change! - SittingDuck Blog: “Right of reply on right of way”
Blow-by-blow debunking.
Section 3 – Flu & the sun
- NZPA: “Swine flu kills 15th victim”
Still no panic. Defcon 6? More like “mind the gap”. - NZPA: “Green-loving Kiwi celebs want your signatures”
If you can’t trust the government, surely you can trust celebrities.
