Hit-and-run driver gets home detention

Fiona from Henderson

"He was sentenced to four months' home detention, 12 months' disqualification from driving, and was ordered to pay $4000 in reparation to the victim's family"
That's all he got for killing a 14 year old?😒😒
So the courts calculated that this poor wee angel that died was only worth (approx) $285.71 per year that she was alive - WTH!!!
"He's remorseful for what he's done" - really? Or is he just remorseful he got caught?
He was driving an unregistered and unwarranted car with both alcohol and cannabis in his system when this happened.
He knew exactly what he was doing.
The poor wee young lady's family are far more generous and forgiving than most of us would be.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Luckily self-checkout is being 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?

Share in the comments below if this has ever happened to you.

Poll: Have you ever had a scary flight?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?
