Two fatal crashes in Wellington

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Wellington police are appealing to the public to take more care after attending two fatal crashes in Wellington over the weekend.
A car crashed on Cobham Drive, outside St Patrick’s College, near the intersection of Evans Bay Pde in Kilbirnie on Sunday, resulting in the death of a 16 year-old.
Stuff understands the car involved had been previously stolen from an address in Miramar. Police report there were seven reports of stolen cars in Miramar last week.
It was the second fatal crash of the weekend with another death on Saturday following a two-car crash in Upper Hutt.
Wellingtom police subsequently released a statement calling on Wellingtons to take more care on the roads.
"Two grieving families and two funerals being planned before Christmas. We need to do better Wellington. It really is so simple."

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

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Luckily self-checkout is 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?
