Thanks for keeping us informed about the fines that the traffic wardens intend to issue drivers of cars with bald tyres.

Not that I have bald tyres, but the fear of a fine will give me a reason not to risk parking in town. Cheers for that.

EDITOR'S NOTE:

Tauranga City Council announced Monday evening it was holding off plans for parking wardens to fine motorists for dangerous tyres, as part of the TWIRL campaign.
A decision with what is happening long term with the matter will be released soon. The parking wardens were only ever to take part in the tyre checks component of TWIRL, with police proceeding with the campaign by checking vehicles' tyres, windscreen, wipers, mirrors, indicators, rust and lights.
