The roads are choc full of morons who have no intelligence, no patience, no skill and plenty of arrogant entitlement - a lethal combination.


Cross ya fingers hope for the best.

As ex Aucklander I thought I had seen it all, but driving in this village is beyond belief! Tradies down here think they own the road, no indication, no giving way, speeding, red lights not meaning anything. All this while having their companies name and phone number sprawled all over their vehicle......Steel and Tube, you are repeat offenders. And then there are the countless women I see on their phone while on the school run, no doubt organizing a mid morning coffee meet up with other mums. Get a grip Tauranga!


Idiot drivers

So an Ex Aucklander is surprised by the driving in Tauranga! The idiot drivers have been around in NZ for years but with all the ex Aucklanders coming to TGA in their droves the idiot driver population has increased!.... no surprises there! Yes the women appear to be on their phones all the time... bet they are made up of ex Aucklanders. It's also noticeable how arrogant in general they are, not just on the roads! Just ask anybody dealing with the public about ex Aucklanders... No surprises there either!
