SEEKING SUPPORT FOR OUR CAMPAIGN TO PARLIAMENT - Public awareness
Kia ora everyone - hope your evenings going well.
On behalf of myself and my family, we are seeking support from you all towards our petition to parliament to: Seek harsher penalties to drivers who cause bodily harm or death to pedestrians on our roads.
This has come to light due to one of our beloved family members who died due to them recieving severe injuries in which they died on the way to hospital back in July being hit by a car on Te atatu road, Henderson end (West Auckland). As we are all coming to terms about this, our campaign is to highlight to such services, outlets who manage our roads to have our roads more safer - towards installing CCTV, speed bumps, speed limit signage in and around that road, and more lighting. But to also educate all road users towards being mindful on those who use the roads both on the roads and on foot too.
Such services we have been intouch with have been Auckland's Mayor Phil Goff, Auckland Transport towards their proposal to our government in their May proposal for $700m for upgrade towards Aucklands 'safer action project' and sending our petition towards parliament and connecting with our current Minister of Transport; Mr Phil Twyford in our concerns, petition and campaign cause to parliament in possible changing the current NZ Traffic law regulations.
As no one should ever go through anyone that they dearly love to die on such unforeseen events this petition is to highlilght more emphasis towards our current traffic law regulations which is quite vague when it comes to giving justice for victims and their surviving families.
We will also be out in the community in the upcoming weeks and in 2019 in speaking with the public about our campaign and hope to see you all there in shedding light towards our cause as well as those who can't talk for themselves who are not here anymore.
Should you like to take part in our campaign or like to know more towards our cause please PM our page.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
