NZ's highest-earning red light camera rakes in nearly $650,000 in fines in first year

Brian from New Lynn

Motorists on Auckland’s North Shore have kept a red-light camera extremely busy in its first year of operation.
In the 12 months from June 2018 to June to 2019, $642,000 in fines were issued by the fixed-position camera.

Motorists on Auckland’s North Shore have kept a red-light camera extremely busy in its first year of operation.
In the 12 months from June 2018 to June to 2019, $642,000 in fines were issued by the fixed-position camera.
It's a figure that even the AA, which supports the use of red-light cameras, says is concerning. “A camera issuing that many tickets, your're just not getting the right road safety result,” AA advisor Barney Irvine told Seven Sharp.
The camera was installed at the intersection of Esmonde Road and Fred Thomas Drive, near the Northern Motorway on-ramp, as part of a wider rollout of cameras across the city. Each new single camera costs $46,828, generally purchased by Auckland Transport and is monitored by police. “The camera there issued two-thousand tickets in the first four months of the year, and that’s way ahead of what we’re seeing on other roads with the same amount of traffic. It’s just far too high,” Mr Irvine says. The AA is now calling on Auckland Transport to investigate other options for cracking down on red-light infringements. In a statement, Auckland Transport says that it is aware that “this intersection is a high infringement zone” and that they are looking at ways to make signage and signals clearer. “This will include additional traffic lights (one that sits over the intersection) and flashing studs in the road seal to warn people of the upcoming red signal.” Mr Irvine says sometimes a red-light camera by itself just isn’t enough.

Set apart from other centres by the unique philosophy of ‘one child at a time’, Eduplay Childcare in Westgate believe that children all grow and develop in their own unique way. This means the entire centre is focused on the individual child’s development to ensure they progress from room to room and a more stimulating environment when they are ready and not only according to their age.

An important point of difference is that Eduplay is a sugar-free centre serving wholesome, nutritious, meals for children enrolled in their all-day programme. Centre founder, Tupa’i Apa says “our goal is to provide an eating environment that promotes the development of good eating habits and supports family and multicultural values”.

Eduplay Westgate is a large centre that feels small. This is mainly due to the fact the five age-appropriate rooms all have their own separate playgrounds. Head Teacher, Sarah Keown, says, “age-appropriate playgrounds and rooms are essential in large centres, and keeping them separate from each other ensures that our teachers can monitor the experiences they set up to ensure the safest possible environment.” Eduplay Westgate also has its own car park which makes drop off and pick up easy and stress-free.

We're currently enrolling so pop in and have a look around before we fill up.

Are YOU paying too much tax?

Brian from New Lynn

If you have recently started getting your NZ Super, you will need to make sure you have used the correct tax code. If not, you could be paying too much tax.

To … View moreIf you have recently started getting your NZ Super, you will need to make sure you have used the correct tax code. If not, you could be paying too much tax. If NZ Super is your only source of income, you should be on the “M” tax code, but there are other tax codes that could apply to you. To find out what your current tax code is, please visit Inland Revenue at www.ird.govt.nz... and search ‘work out my tax code’. You’ll need to contact Work and Income if you need to change your tax code, eg, if you stop working, so they can pay you the right amount of NZ Super or Veteran’s Pension. To do this, you will need to complete a Tax code declaration (IR330) from Inland Revenue (you can do this online at www.ird.govt.nz...) and then print it off and drop it off to reception at your Work and Income local service centre, or post it to your local service centre. To find out more about changing your tax code for NZ Super and Veteran’s Pension go to www.workandincome.govt.nz...
