[Guest]

These are normally signposted by massive black signs at the start of the road.

Was put in place to stop boy racers

Shouldn't affect you if your passing through and have a reason to pass through that road

[ReubenH]

hah! Only 2 of those roads are north of the bridge.

South auckland/manakau, you fail.

[Guest]

There was a christmas function at import customs (Cf member) his business is on one of them roads .. we had about 10 cop cars come flying down there as some of our club where there, owner had to calm the cops down...

errr sorry officer it's business christmas break up... they weren't impressed

[CMPLSV]

Thanx heaps for tht mad, very insightful will defitly b helpful in the future im sure

[Guest lan_killa]

woha... thats an interesting law... time to drive around with some bags of cement in the back of the wagon i think... I notice with alot of those thier saying that it also includes saturday and sunday during the day... i dont see this working in a big hurry....

[Joker]

it is and it has - like Post #2 said its not exactly a new thing

[Guest]

Yep cops can use it quite well on boy racers and as most of those roads are industrial sort of areas they can just block everyone in lol

[Joker]

*unlocked*

shall we try again?

for those who care the rest of the dribble is here ; http://www.clubsub.org.nz/forum/index.php?topic=2190.0

AWESOME glad you added that.. your a champion or championess

[QIK_KAS]

I never heard of this kind of thing..

Are restricted roads in other cities too? Or just the big ones.. haha As far as I was aware, to keep boy racers off the roads down here in dunners they put a sh*te load of speed bumps, or just close the road to anyone and refuse to reopen it. haha

[Guest]

I'm not sure but I read somewhere that chch had this as well but I will stand corrected if someone in the know, knows

[Joker]

same for MANY city's in NZ - I know the tron does

[Johnnynz]

I have never come across this law before anywhere (Small town boy lol).

Seems like a good idea though if Police use the law with some degree of self moderation.

You would think it would violate some right to freedom of movement I guess but if they can make it stick and be realistic about who they ticket more power to them.

Keep the tards off the street and in the ditches I say.

[WRXER]

Yeah chch has a ton of them, been around for 8 years now lol never had an issue.

[Guest]

Most people won't have an issue as even if your passing through during the day your generally going to have a reason to as in "I'm heading to x and this is fastest route", also most of these roads won't be used by general public mostly anyways

Yes and no - typically these roads arent through roads. They are dead end or loop through industrial estates. Theres normally no reason to go through them after hours.

From a business owners perspective, it also helps keep undesirables from hanging around to commit burglaries after hours, so not a bad thing really

[Guest]

I'v gotta go thru a restricted road every day, and about 2 years ago on a few early sat morn runs (truckie) i had been pulled up twice by police and was given absolute shit for using it both times by the same cop and was issued $400 tickets both times, even tho i told him that this road was the quickest route to depot and that i was going to work which was/is a legitamate excuse and that he couldn't do any thing about it. I suppose he was just doing his job and found it hard to believe a hoody wearing young guy in a better looking car than is own.

I got off tickets eventually and now we just give each other friendly gestures......out the window lol, i get along with him well now.
