Sign our petition please | Support our efforts to remove E-Scooters off footpaths |

Thomas from Lyall Bay

First of all, a big thank you for your support to remove e-scooters off footpaths. It’s been great – but, we have more to do…
We are coming back to you all again for additional support about the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) | Waka Kotahi’s engagement and whether E-Scooters should be considered a motor vehicle or not. We need you to support our joint petition to remove E-Scooters off footpaths as follows…
Disabled Persons Assembly (DPA), Blind Citizens NZ, and Living Streets Aotearoa are collaborating - we’re calling on NZTA | Waka Kotahi to not renew the declaration that says E-Scooters are not motor vehicles. We believe E-Scooters are motor vehicles – they travel at speed, they injure people and we need to get these dangerous vehicles off our footpaths.

Signing the petition will demonstrate your support and help create safer streets for everyone! It will keep footpaths for pedestrians which includes mobility device users (i.e. wheel chair and mobility scooter users).

Our call to action urges you to support our efforts and to please sign our petition by taking the following link

our.actionstation.org.nz...



Please share this opportunity as widely as possible including encouraging family-whānau to support our efforts.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
