"ROAD SAFETY WEEK" * New Zealand: TRUCKS' INSPECTION

* Auckland - Police order 35 unsafe trucks off road

--- A focus on heavy vehicle safety across the South Island has seen over 1000 heavy vehicles stopped and 104 infringement notices issued... The operation over four days during Road Safety Week (16-22 May 2016) has been a success says Inspector Bruce O'Brien, Commercial Vehicle Investigation Unit manager... During the operation drivers were reminded of the need to be alert at the wheel as fatigue is a serious risk factor for all drivers... Some of the heavy vehicles stopped were showing signs of poor maintenance with 35 vehicles classed as being unsafe and ordered off the road while for a further 13 vehicles defects were identified that required immediate attention... The operation was undertaken with other road policing partners and over the four days checkpoints were held in Blenheim, Ashburton, Christchurch City and North Canterbury... Across the four sites 33 infringement notices were issued in Christchurch City, 31 in Blenheim, 21 in North Canterbury and 19 in Ashburton...
