Auckland Transport monthly update - February 2019

number DT/2019/12

That the Devonport-Takapuna
Local Board:
a)
receive the Auckland Transport February 2019
monthly update report and thank Marilyn Nicholls for her presentation and
attendance

notes with concern the inconsistent low penalties

injury, of failing to stop at a red traffic light and driving at a speed in
excess of the speed limit where the offence is detected by either a fixed or
mobile camera device
c)
urges Auckland Transport to make strong representations to the
appropriate authorities to ensure our infringement penalties, for driving
offences, are more reflective of the seriousness of offences that are
attributable to causing death and serious injury. (especially infringements
for driving in excess of the speed limit, failing to stop at red traffic
lights and failing to wear a seat belt)
d)
requests that Auckland Transport investigate and consider
overseas and Australian examples of good practice in measures and equipment
to improve the reaction time of drivers of vehicles when traffic lights turn
green.
