Oh how quick some people have chosen to forget, or maybe they didn't even bother with the rules from the beginning.
These people include someone from all groups on the roads, truck drivers, taxi drivers, all forms of cars, vans & 4 wheel drives and even motorbikes.

These people include someone from all groups on the roads, truck drivers, taxi drivers, all forms of cars, vans & 4 wheel drives and even motorbikes.
The few who seem to think that they are immune from the rules for driving in the tunnel, here is a refresher course for you.
1. NO SPEEDING! The speed limit is 80 (max) If there’s an incident the Tunnel Operators can change the speed limit via the variable message signs for safety reasons.
Unless it's peak hour traffic, that does not mean that you can do 50 or 60 or out of peak hour traffic 100 or 120!!!
2. KEEP YOUR LIGHTS ON!! While you are in the tunnel you must keep your lights on - as the signs tell you. You need to be seen early and not last minute. NOT ON HIGH BEAM!
3. NO CHANGING LANES!!! The solid white line means no over taking or switching lanes. Switching lanes can cause incidents and traffic jams. Plan your journey, get in to the correct lane early. If you are unsure which lane you need, keep the middle lane.
4. NO TAILGATING!! Keep a safe distance between you and the vehicle in front of you.
5. DO NOT STOP!! You can’t Stop, U-turn or Reverse.
As always, the standard motorway rules apply.
6. Car issues? Move left or right
If your vehicle is breaking down or not working as it should, move in to the left or right lanes and avoid the middle lane if possible. Ensure your vehicle has sufficient fuel before entering the tunnel.
7. Dangerous Goods vehicles, vehicles over 4.3m high and vehicles carrying loose bulk loads aren’t allowed - find another route!
8. Follow the signs. They are there to inform you of any speed restrictions, which lane you need to use and other important information.
Drive to the conditions, drive safely and be considerate of other drivers around you.
Update: Auckland Transport earlier advised all train services were suspended across the network due to sign failure. This signal failure has now been fixed and services are slowly returning to normal.

Hi neighbours. Our bad recycling habits have seen 32,300 tonnes of rubbish find its way into recycling bins.

In the US last year, Mom's Organic Market founder and CEO Scott Nash did something many are afraid to do: He ate a cup of yoghurt months after its expiration date. And then tortillas a year past their expiration date.

"I mean, I ate heavy cream I think 10 weeks past date," says Nash, "and then meat sometimes a good month past its date. It didn't smell bad. Rinse it off, good to go."
It was all part of his year-long experiment to test the limits on food that had passed its expiration date.
