bloody hell hope the rider pulls through… these country roads are dodgy enough during the day, let alone dusk

James O’Brien2026-07-11T07:10:55.000Z

another one… how many more crashes on that stretch before they put in some proper lighting or a roundabout?

Reese Morgan2026-07-11T07:51:55.000Z

yeah nah I agree, they’ve been saying that for years. nothing happens till someone dies

poor guy, critical condition at 5pm on a scooter. just awful

Leo McKenzie2026-07-11T07:19:55.000Z

they always close the road for hours too, like we don’t have lives. hope the bloke is okay but ffs

Leo McKenzie2026-07-11T07:54:55.000Z

absolute nightmare for everyone involved, but you’re right — the road closure is a pain in the arse

Jack Morrison2026-07-11T07:36:55.000Z

true that, seen too many close calls. wish ppl would just drive slower on those roads

sending good vibes to the rider and everyone affected. such a scary thing to happen on a Sunday evening 💔

James O’Brien2026-07-11T08:18:55.000Z

lol “good vibes” aren’t gonna fix the road. we need actual changes

does anyone know exactly where on Waiuku-Otaua Rd? that’s my commute home and I’m worried about tomorrow
