Christchurch authorities have come up with a plan to stop boy racers revving engines and racing off the line: Don't let them hit red lights.

Council will trial phasing the traffic lights on Bealey Ave so traffic gets a clear run down the length of the street, to reduce noise from things like stopping and accelerating, revving and burn-outs.

Do you think this will stop boy racers from revving loudly? Tell us in the comments below (please write NFP if you don't want your comments published).

Identifying a workplace risk, but not following up to ensure it is controlled is bad health and safety business practice according to WorkSafe.
Another business has been fined for failing to ensure the correct Health & Safety of their staff while at work.
Agility Building Solutions Ltd has been fine $150,000 and has to pay (only) $42,180.04 to the injured painter contractor who fell 2 metres from the scaffolding to the concrete floor. As he landed head first, he suffered multiple fractures to his skull, face and ribs and sustained a major brain trauma as a result of the fall - it was his first day on the job.

Companies are expected to provide the correct safety equipment to all staff and ensure they used them correct.

Contact Paul if you have any issue with the Health & Safety in your company.
