Speed limits in parks
Most parks have speed limits of 10 or 20kph.
Nga Puna Wai is 10kph yes 10kph. The same for the Show grounds.
As the plantings have restricted the views of cars entering and leaving NPW, 10kph is plenty fast enough.
If you are late for a sporting event, start out earlier and do not put kids and animals at risk. Thank you.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
Luckily self-checkout is pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?
What are your thoughts? Is that rude?
