Traffic bylaw to discourage street racing nearly there in Palmerston North
Hi neighbours,
Palmerston North is a step closer to a bylaw change intended to discourage gatherings of antisocial street racing.
The rule changes would apply to known hot spots, and apart from exemptions for residents, businesses, emergency services and legitimate users, would ban light vehicles from those streets from 10pm to 4am.
Are there any other measures you think the city council and police should be considering?
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
