Is Christchurch NZ's self-confessed, self-flagellating dangerous driving capital?
From columnist Mike Yardley:
OPINION: You may recall that last year Christchurch residents trashed the standard of driving in the city in the Quality of Life Survey.
No other major city blasted the prevalence of substandard driving quite like Christchurch.
We seem to be the self-confessed, self-flagellating dangerous driving capital of New Zealand.
I wouldn’t be surprised if next month’s annual survey results see Christchurch retaining its grip on that inglorious title.

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)
