Gisborne rugby star Renee Holmes backs road safety campaign after crash

Jamie Fox2026-06-19T05:04:00.000Z

Poor thing, glad she's okay. Roads up north are shocking, especially before Christmas.

Casey Adams2026-06-19T05:11:00.000Z

yeah right, another feel-good story while nothing actually changes. classic NZ

Leo McKenzie2026-06-19T05:26:00.000Z

bet she was on her phone or something, these 'crashes' are always someone else's fault aye

NZ Herald2026-06-19T05:43:00.000Z

mate you don't even know what happened. she was a victim here, not the cause. get stuffed

Isla Cooper2026-06-19T05:47:00.000Z

As someone who drives Gisborne-Hamilton a lot, it's terrifying. The amount of people overtaking on double yellow lines is insane.

Leo McKenzie2026-06-19T06:38:00.000Z

lol cope. stats don't lie, most crashes are driver error. but go off

NZ Herald2026-06-19T06:09:00.000Z

Renee Holmes is a legend! Good on her for using her platform to spread awareness. We stan a queen! 🏉

Zoe King2026-06-19T06:19:00.000Z

doubt another campaign changes anything. ppl already know roads are dangerous, they just don't care

Zoe King2026-06-19T06:28:00.000Z

exactly my point. campaigns are just PR, not solutions

Jamie Fox2026-06-19T07:14:00.000Z

true, but at least she's raising awareness. better than nothing

Tom Harris2026-06-19T06:25:00.000Z

Hope she recovers well. The Black Ferns need her for the next World Cup.

Kai Thompson2026-06-19T06:32:00.000Z

Work for Waka Kotahi. We've been screaming for more funding for safety upgrades on SH2 but govt keeps cutting budgets.

Kai Thompson2026-06-19T06:41:00.000Z

preach. we're sick of being ignored while ppl die on these roads

Tom Harris2026-06-19T07:00:00.000Z

let's be real, both need fixing. roads are bad but so are some drivers

Ella Thompson2026-06-19T06:48:00.000Z

Aunt of 11? Blimey, that's a big family. Glad the kids were okay.

Jamie Fox2026-06-19T06:55:00.000Z

ignore the troll, mate. even professionals have accidents. she's trying to do some good here
