Sorry guys, that extra 80,000 is less than we normally have during Feb/Mar and certainly less than Xmas. Also, the majority are coming from commonwealth countries (England, Scotland, Wales, Australia ... etc) and they share 'common' driving laws. As for campervans, of that 75K, only a small portion are registered as rentals.

Great article guys, as a truck driver myself, this really does highlight what we go through on a daily basis.. other motorists really do need to learn to hang back, we always move left when its safe to do so. Dave, Wellington truck driver.
