We switched seats: drivers on bikes, and cyclists behind the wheel of the bus. Key lessons for bikers: - keep out of the driver's blind spot behind the bus - ride predictably. Signal, use eye contact. - if riding up the Glenmore St bus lane, pull over if there's a string of buses behind you. - keep out of Bus Only lanes such as Willis St and by the Wellington Railway Station - use lots of reflective gear and lights at night - avoid riding 2 abreast if the bus needs to get past Key lessons for drivers: - sometimes bikers need to occupy the lane for their safety e.g. Adelaide Rd - advance stop boxes, such as those in Newtown, help cyclists get through an intersection quickly http://can.org.nz/article/wellington-bus-driver-workshop-1-june-2010
Police have been interviewing survivors of a crash which killed three American university students near Turangi.
Condolences flowed today for the families of the three American students who were killed when a van they were in cart-wheeled on State Highway 46 near Turangi yesterday.
Three American students are dead, one is fighting for her life and four others needed hospital treatment after their van crashed south of Turangi early this morning.
A former ambulance officer was first on the scene at the Tongariro crash yesterday morning that killed three Boston University students.
