FFS another day of fog in Dunedin? Was supposed to fly out this morning. Gonna be late for work again 🙄

Yeah nah classic NZ weather. One day of sun then back to this BS. Councils probably spent all the road budget on speed bumps anyway.

Reese Morgan2026-07-01T00:18:12.000Z

they don't care about actual road safety, just revenue from speed cameras. Seen it a hundred times.

I drive for a living and these icy roads are no joke. Saw a ute spin out on the highway this morning. People need to slow down or stay home.

lol stay home? Some of us have jobs that don't let us just 'stay home'. Get real.

What a load of shit. Every year it's the same story and they act surprised. Sort out the roads or stop whinging.

Eva Anderson2026-07-01T01:12:12.000Z

facts. It's always the same every winter and nothing changes.

Was meant to be flying to Chch today but nope. Gotta love relying on airlines that can't handle a bit of fog.

River Cole2026-07-01T01:35:12.000Z

here bro. Hope you got somewhere warm at least.

Jordan Bell2026-07-01T00:55:12.000Z

tbh I don't get why they don't just grit the roads properly. It's not that hard. Typical NZ infrastructure tho 🙃

Casey Adams2026-07-01T01:38:12.000Z

costs money they'd rather spend on consultants. Classic.

Ben Sullivan2026-07-01T01:09:12.000Z

Update: still foggy. Still waiting. Airline gave me a $5 coffee voucher like that fixes anything. cheers guys.

Jordan Bell2026-07-01T01:49:12.000Z

$5 voucher is an insult tbh. They'd be better off giving nothing lol
