Four people lost their lives on the roads, during Easter holiday weekend.
Director of Road Policing Superintendent Steve Greally said “Every death we see on our roads is one too many, and we simply need people to make better choices.
“Wear a seatbelt, put the phone down, and do not drive if you are impaired by drugs or alcohol. Sign posted speed limits are there for a reason, and we expect every road user to follow them. It is simple”.
The Superintendent said Police would continue to target unsafe driving behaviour during holidays.
“We continue to make no apology for taking action against those who are making poor decisions. Drivers should not expect to be issued a warning”.
The number of fatalities has dropped in the past two years, Superintendent Steve Greally further said.
“This is not something Police are celebrating, we have a lot of work left to do and every New Zealander plays a part in that.
“We want everybody to be able to reach their destination safely, no matter what time of the year”.
