Street sign advertising too distracting?

Jared Nicoll Reporter from Kapi-Mana News

Have you ever noticed the advertising around street signs in Porirua?
The council has a deal with Nu-Lite Illuminated Signs that gives them the exclusive right to erect illuminated signs with street names.
But has anyone been distracted by the advertising around street name signs? Maybe ended up somewhere you weren't intending?
We'd love to hear your stories.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
