87
00:03:54,373 --> 00:03:57,173
Speaker 4: Fair enough to yeah, yeah, yeah, no nepotism. Right after

88
00:03:57,333 --> 00:04:00,093
Speaker 4: three o'clock, This is going to be an interesting discussion.

89
00:04:00,133 --> 00:04:02,732
Speaker 4: What improved your quality of life so much that you'd

90
00:04:02,733 --> 00:04:03,893
Speaker 4: wish you'd done it sooner?

91
00:04:04,533 --> 00:04:07,133
Speaker 2: Yeah? This is blown up on the internet as a question.

92
00:04:07,253 --> 00:04:09,773
Speaker 2: It's everywhere across social media and there's a lot of

93
00:04:09,813 --> 00:04:12,293
Speaker 2: different answers out there. But you know, it's kind of

94
00:04:12,333 --> 00:04:15,533
Speaker 2: a version of you know, what would I do now

95
00:04:16,093 --> 00:04:21,093
Speaker 2: if I was when I was younger? You know that

96
00:04:21,173 --> 00:04:22,253
Speaker 2: song yeah love me song?

97
00:04:22,373 --> 00:04:22,573
Speaker 6: Yeah?

98
00:04:22,653 --> 00:04:24,813
Speaker 2: Yeah. So it's kind of that that because you know,

99
00:04:25,253 --> 00:04:26,773
Speaker 2: you get a bit older, you get into your thirties,

100
00:04:26,813 --> 00:04:29,933
Speaker 2: your forties, and your fifties and your sixties and seventies,

101
00:04:29,933 --> 00:04:31,733
Speaker 2: and you look back and go, gosh, if I'd known

102
00:04:31,773 --> 00:04:33,773
Speaker 2: that when I was twenty five, my life would have

103
00:04:33,813 --> 00:04:35,253
Speaker 2: been a lot easier. If I'd known that when I

104
00:04:35,253 --> 00:04:36,773
Speaker 2: was eighteen, my life would have been a lot easier.

105
00:04:36,853 --> 00:04:38,533
Speaker 3: Yeap, that is going to be a great chet After

106
00:04:38,613 --> 00:04:39,253
Speaker 3: three o'clock.

107
00:04:39,293 --> 00:04:42,373
Speaker 4: After two o'clock, we want to talk about gray areas

108
00:04:42,373 --> 00:04:44,173
Speaker 4: of law when it comes to driving. This is after

109
00:04:44,213 --> 00:04:47,373
Speaker 4: an article and many people have come across this recently.

110
00:04:47,413 --> 00:04:50,013
Speaker 4: So you're driving up a suburban street and the road narrows.

111
00:04:50,053 --> 00:04:52,813
Speaker 4: You got cars parked on either side, You're going in

112
00:04:52,853 --> 00:04:55,013
Speaker 4: one direction, you see someone coming in the other direction,

113
00:04:55,093 --> 00:04:56,533
Speaker 4: and you hit that part.

114
00:04:56,373 --> 00:04:59,013
Speaker 3: Of the road at the same time. Who gives way?

115
00:04:59,413 --> 00:05:02,133
Speaker 2: Yeah, And there's a lot of gray areas like that. Look,

116
00:05:02,133 --> 00:05:04,013
Speaker 2: there's a lot of people that don't know the road code.

117
00:05:04,013 --> 00:05:05,973
Speaker 2: At all across the board. You see that every day.

118
00:05:06,013 --> 00:05:08,933
Speaker 2: That's me. But there's also some gray areas. You know,

119
00:05:08,933 --> 00:05:10,973
Speaker 2: there's so many variables out on the road, this thing,

120
00:05:11,173 --> 00:05:14,133
Speaker 2: some things that aren't set in stone. Yeah, looking forward

121
00:05:14,133 --> 00:05:14,293
Speaker 2: to it.

122
00:05:14,333 --> 00:05:17,813
Speaker 4: I mean someone text and before about an obscure law

123
00:05:17,813 --> 00:05:19,893
Speaker 4: when it comes to pedestrian crossings that I had no

124
00:05:19,973 --> 00:05:20,493
Speaker 4: idea about.

125
00:05:20,613 --> 00:05:23,133
Speaker 2: Yeah, before pedestrian crossing on the road, there is a

126
00:05:23,133 --> 00:05:26,213
Speaker 2: big white diamond. If an approaching car is already in

127
00:05:26,253 --> 00:05:29,213
Speaker 2: between that diamond and the crossing, then the pedestrian should

128
00:05:29,253 --> 00:05:31,453
Speaker 2: give way to the car. I mean, as a driver,

129
00:05:31,453 --> 00:05:33,253
Speaker 2: you don't want to enforce that one by plowing through

130
00:05:33,293 --> 00:05:34,013
Speaker 2: people crossing.

131
00:05:34,173 --> 00:05:34,413
Speaker 7: Yeah.

132
00:05:34,813 --> 00:05:38,333
Speaker 2: Actually, look I was already between the diamond and the crossing,

133
00:05:38,373 --> 00:05:39,533
Speaker 2: so I'm not going to break here.

134
00:05:40,173 --> 00:05:42,053
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, how well would that go in court? But

135
00:05:42,093 --> 00:05:44,893
Speaker 4: that is after two o'clock and just before we get

136
00:05:44,933 --> 00:05:48,693
Speaker 4: to the topic right now. So a couple of ideas

137
00:05:48,693 --> 00:05:50,693
Speaker 4: for the new name for the show, Matt Heath and

138
00:05:50,773 --> 00:05:51,613
Speaker 4: Shifty Swifty.

139
00:05:52,653 --> 00:05:54,213
Speaker 2: You're happy with Shifty Swifty.

140
00:05:53,973 --> 00:05:57,733
Speaker 3: I'll take it the Matt Damon and the Taylor Swift Show.

141
00:05:57,773 --> 00:06:00,253
Speaker 2: I think what they mean is it Mer Booeman and

142
00:06:01,013 --> 00:06:04,333
Speaker 2: the Taylor Swift show from the Team America situation. That's

143
00:06:04,373 --> 00:06:06,413
Speaker 2: not a bit. Yeah, we all on board, but we're

144
00:06:06,413 --> 00:06:08,013
Speaker 2: not looking to change my name in it. We just

145
00:06:08,053 --> 00:06:11,053
Speaker 2: sort of of trying to look at acknowledging your love

146
00:06:11,293 --> 00:06:14,373
Speaker 2: of Taylor Swift by calling it the Tyler Swift and

147
00:06:14,373 --> 00:06:15,293
Speaker 2: Matt each.

148
00:06:15,053 --> 00:06:18,293
Speaker 4: Everything will be considered right on to the discussion. Now,

149
00:06:18,293 --> 00:06:20,133
Speaker 4: this will be a good one. The government is promising

150
00:06:20,173 --> 00:06:23,813
Speaker 4: to change or make some significant significant changes rather to

151
00:06:23,853 --> 00:06:26,573
Speaker 4: special licensing rules to make it easier for organizers to

152
00:06:26,773 --> 00:06:29,933
Speaker 4: run events. So it builds on last week's alcohol law

153
00:06:30,093 --> 00:06:32,373
Speaker 4: changes that made it simpler for ministers to declare one

154
00:06:32,373 --> 00:06:35,333
Speaker 4: off special trading hours for pubs and clubs who screen

155
00:06:35,373 --> 00:06:38,893
Speaker 4: major sport and cultural events. So the new changes effectively

156
00:06:39,053 --> 00:06:43,453
Speaker 4: simplify what was a very complex process around special licensing

157
00:06:43,533 --> 00:06:47,693
Speaker 4: applications to ensure consistent decision making throughout the country.

158
00:06:47,853 --> 00:06:49,813
Speaker 2: So you're happy with these measures, you think it should

159
00:06:49,853 --> 00:06:53,693
Speaker 2: go further. I personally believe that councils and government should,

160
00:06:53,733 --> 00:06:56,253
Speaker 2: instead of making it difficult for events to go head

161
00:06:56,293 --> 00:07:00,173
Speaker 2: should be absolutely rolling out the red, blue, and green

162
00:07:00,253 --> 00:07:03,413
Speaker 2: and whatever cover carpet to make sure that these things happen.

163
00:07:03,453 --> 00:07:05,533
Speaker 2: Because they're so good for society, they're so good for

164
00:07:05,533 --> 00:07:08,573
Speaker 2: the community, and they're so good for local economies. So

165
00:07:08,693 --> 00:07:13,373
Speaker 2: if your rules are so outside of what's logical to

166
00:07:13,413 --> 00:07:17,253
Speaker 2: most kiwis and are so convoluted and the wheel has

167
00:07:17,293 --> 00:07:18,933
Speaker 2: to be invented every time someone tries to put on

168
00:07:18,973 --> 00:07:22,333
Speaker 2: an event then and events get shut down because of that,

169
00:07:22,413 --> 00:07:24,533
Speaker 2: then you are not doing your job. You're doing the

170
00:07:24,573 --> 00:07:28,093
Speaker 2: exact reverse of your job. And look, as I've said

171
00:07:28,093 --> 00:07:30,813
Speaker 2: at number of times that it feels like the people

172
00:07:30,853 --> 00:07:34,693
Speaker 2: that make these rules are anti anti everyday people and

173
00:07:34,693 --> 00:07:37,773
Speaker 2: what they want to do anti fun. Yeah, anti fun,

174
00:07:37,853 --> 00:07:40,133
Speaker 2: anti fun. So oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.

175
00:07:40,173 --> 00:07:43,533
Speaker 2: If you've tried to set up an event and you've

176
00:07:43,573 --> 00:07:46,013
Speaker 2: either succeeded or failed, what were the roadblocks that you

177
00:07:46,133 --> 00:07:48,733
Speaker 2: came up against? We know the god awful road management

178
00:07:48,773 --> 00:07:52,293
Speaker 2: plans obviously going through the special licensing committees. Does the

179
00:07:52,373 --> 00:07:54,653
Speaker 2: council and the government just need to get out of

180
00:07:54,653 --> 00:07:59,213
Speaker 2: the way. Yeah, And look what insane conditions have you

181
00:07:59,373 --> 00:08:03,173
Speaker 2: seen at events that have been imposed on events? Crazy

182
00:08:03,373 --> 00:08:06,813
Speaker 2: setups that you've seen because we've all been to things

183
00:08:06,813 --> 00:08:09,053
Speaker 2: and go, this is just making it so much more

184
00:08:09,093 --> 00:08:10,973
Speaker 2: difficult for us to have a good time. Yeah, and

185
00:08:11,653 --> 00:08:13,933
Speaker 2: often the event managers, you know, and the people putting

186
00:08:13,933 --> 00:08:15,413
Speaker 2: on the event get blamed for this and it turns

187
00:08:15,413 --> 00:08:21,813
Speaker 2: out it's just you know, multi council cross insanity, Yeah,

188
00:08:21,893 --> 00:08:25,173
Speaker 2: with people just making up rules because they enjoy the

189
00:08:25,213 --> 00:08:27,053
Speaker 2: feeling of imposing power on other people.

190
00:08:27,173 --> 00:08:29,973
Speaker 4: Get an Oh, hundred eighty ten eighty is the number

191
00:08:29,973 --> 00:08:31,653
Speaker 4: to call coming up. We're going to have a chat

192
00:08:31,653 --> 00:08:34,293
Speaker 4: with Brent Eckles, one of our most well known and

193
00:08:34,333 --> 00:08:37,933
Speaker 4: successful event promoters. He is coming up very shortly, but

194
00:08:38,053 --> 00:08:40,773
Speaker 4: taking your calls on our eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.

195
00:08:40,813 --> 00:08:43,132
Speaker 2: It is fourteen past one. Quite like the suggestion of

196
00:08:43,173 --> 00:08:45,813
Speaker 2: famous are the Beavis and but Ed show. How'll you

197
00:08:45,892 --> 00:08:46,293
Speaker 2: work with that?

198
00:08:46,413 --> 00:08:46,653
Speaker 8: Yeah?

199
00:08:46,653 --> 00:08:47,132
Speaker 2: That's good.

200
00:08:48,173 --> 00:08:51,573
Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues, the big trends and

201
00:08:51,892 --> 00:08:52,852
Speaker 1: everything in between.

202
00:08:53,093 --> 00:08:56,012
Speaker 5: Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons used talks.

203
00:08:56,012 --> 00:08:56,333
Speaker 6: That'd be.

204
00:08:58,132 --> 00:09:00,333
Speaker 4: Very good afternoon to you. So the government is promising

205
00:09:00,372 --> 00:09:02,893
Speaker 4: big changes to special licensing rules to make it easier

206
00:09:02,933 --> 00:09:06,613
Speaker 4: for organizers to run the events. If you're affected by this,

207
00:09:06,732 --> 00:09:09,052
Speaker 4: love to hear from you or what row blocks did

208
00:09:09,093 --> 00:09:11,973
Speaker 4: you face when trying to run an event? But one

209
00:09:11,973 --> 00:09:15,013
Speaker 4: of our most successful and well known promoters and Australasia

210
00:09:15,132 --> 00:09:17,813
Speaker 4: is Brent Equals and Brent is on the line.

211
00:09:17,852 --> 00:09:18,573
Speaker 2: Now very good.

212
00:09:18,453 --> 00:09:20,813
Speaker 6: Afternoon, Well, good afternoon to you.

213
00:09:21,372 --> 00:09:24,132
Speaker 2: Good mate. Now, have you in the past had to

214
00:09:24,173 --> 00:09:27,132
Speaker 2: give up on gigs and events because of the licensing

215
00:09:27,173 --> 00:09:27,893
Speaker 2: red tape?

216
00:09:30,053 --> 00:09:33,573
Speaker 9: Well, I don't know about give up, but it can

217
00:09:33,612 --> 00:09:36,973
Speaker 9: make it very very tricky and it can be you know,

218
00:09:37,053 --> 00:09:39,573
Speaker 9: disappointing for the punters when they when they can't do

219
00:09:39,653 --> 00:09:42,493
Speaker 9: what you want to do and have a act like

220
00:09:43,372 --> 00:09:45,372
Speaker 9: act like they wouldn't a normal life and be able

221
00:09:45,372 --> 00:09:47,613
Speaker 9: to get a drink or a couple of drinks which

222
00:09:47,653 --> 00:09:50,252
Speaker 9: will shout for their mates, and it makes it difficult.

223
00:09:50,333 --> 00:09:52,573
Speaker 6: So we like to have gigs that run smoothly.

224
00:09:53,252 --> 00:09:56,053
Speaker 9: Most of us are very responsible, so we just feel

225
00:09:56,093 --> 00:09:57,852
Speaker 9: that every time we have.

226
00:09:57,813 --> 00:09:59,652
Speaker 6: To go to a special license there should.

227
00:09:59,372 --> 00:10:03,093
Speaker 9: Be some you know, some easy and easier way through,

228
00:10:03,653 --> 00:10:04,013
Speaker 9: I guess.

229
00:10:04,973 --> 00:10:07,612
Speaker 2: So do you like what you've seen from these changes?

230
00:10:07,612 --> 00:10:09,893
Speaker 2: What but to good? And do they go far enough?

231
00:10:10,933 --> 00:10:11,093
Speaker 6: Well?

232
00:10:11,132 --> 00:10:13,573
Speaker 9: The thing is that you know the Associate myst of

233
00:10:13,653 --> 00:10:17,053
Speaker 9: Justice and Nicole McKee is she's a good listener and

234
00:10:17,093 --> 00:10:19,893
Speaker 9: she's an advocate of us, so she's she has started

235
00:10:19,933 --> 00:10:22,933
Speaker 9: this process of undoing the red tape, which is kind

236
00:10:22,933 --> 00:10:25,933
Speaker 9: of a really good step in the process that she's

237
00:10:26,012 --> 00:10:29,533
Speaker 9: listening and she agrees with us that it's just crazy.

238
00:10:29,653 --> 00:10:31,213
Speaker 6: So this is the first step.

239
00:10:31,252 --> 00:10:33,333
Speaker 9: It's not the ultimate answer, but it's the first step,

240
00:10:33,333 --> 00:10:35,213
Speaker 9: and it's we're going to get into a good position.

241
00:10:35,333 --> 00:10:36,093
Speaker 6: I can just feel it.

242
00:10:36,492 --> 00:10:38,893
Speaker 2: So how can can you see how it would if

243
00:10:38,892 --> 00:10:41,853
Speaker 2: the nationally applied framework which they're suggesting, so you don't

244
00:10:41,852 --> 00:10:45,173
Speaker 2: have to reinvent the wheel every time, How would that

245
00:10:45,293 --> 00:10:47,612
Speaker 2: change the way you go about managing events?

246
00:10:48,413 --> 00:10:50,732
Speaker 9: Well, maybe it's because it's based on We'll say, for me,

247
00:10:51,132 --> 00:10:54,013
Speaker 9: for example, if equals Entertainment is running an event, we

248
00:10:54,132 --> 00:10:58,093
Speaker 9: have a reputation that is reflected in the process. So

249
00:10:58,413 --> 00:11:00,413
Speaker 9: it's you know, if we've been good at what we

250
00:11:00,492 --> 00:11:03,413
Speaker 9: do and we say we we say that we're going

251
00:11:03,453 --> 00:11:05,172
Speaker 9: to do something and actually do it, then we have

252
00:11:05,213 --> 00:11:07,693
Speaker 9: an easier road through then perhaps someone who's doing it

253
00:11:07,693 --> 00:11:09,453
Speaker 9: for the first time. And I think that's kind of

254
00:11:09,492 --> 00:11:12,492
Speaker 9: the basis of what this is all about. And it's

255
00:11:12,533 --> 00:11:15,093
Speaker 9: also recognizing that kiwis like to drink.

256
00:11:15,453 --> 00:11:16,453
Speaker 6: Yeah, and that's a fact.

257
00:11:16,492 --> 00:11:21,773
Speaker 9: I mean, alcohol is as in our community. So you

258
00:11:21,813 --> 00:11:23,893
Speaker 9: start making rules and where do you end up. You

259
00:11:23,973 --> 00:11:26,053
Speaker 9: end up with prohibition and that's not going to work.

260
00:11:26,573 --> 00:11:28,653
Speaker 9: I mean, trying to stop people drinking is not going

261
00:11:28,732 --> 00:11:31,133
Speaker 9: to work. And it seems that there are people in

262
00:11:31,252 --> 00:11:34,533
Speaker 9: responsible positions who just are trying to make that happen

263
00:11:34,612 --> 00:11:35,732
Speaker 9: and it's just not going to fly.

264
00:11:36,453 --> 00:11:39,773
Speaker 2: Yeah, So that have you thought because I've said this

265
00:11:39,813 --> 00:11:41,492
Speaker 2: and I want to if I'm over eggining egging it,

266
00:11:41,573 --> 00:11:43,693
Speaker 2: But it seems that a lot of these rules are

267
00:11:43,732 --> 00:11:48,853
Speaker 2: made by insane activists who are pushing an agenda that's

268
00:11:48,852 --> 00:11:52,533
Speaker 2: outside what most kiwis would think. They the way they

269
00:11:52,533 --> 00:11:56,172
Speaker 2: want their events to be run, and which begs the

270
00:11:56,213 --> 00:11:58,293
Speaker 2: sort of question, who's making the national rules are going

271
00:11:58,333 --> 00:12:00,253
Speaker 2: to be the same people that make the national rules

272
00:12:00,293 --> 00:12:03,133
Speaker 2: as have made these insane, insane rules.

273
00:12:04,173 --> 00:12:07,813
Speaker 9: Well, I think it's sort of simple. The try agency

274
00:12:07,852 --> 00:12:11,253
Speaker 9: has been Alcohol Harmed Police and Health. There are people

275
00:12:11,252 --> 00:12:14,933
Speaker 9: in those organizations. I respect what they do, but they

276
00:12:15,132 --> 00:12:19,292
Speaker 9: are just don't get it, don't understand events and consider

277
00:12:19,333 --> 00:12:21,852
Speaker 9: events that's dangerous. So they try to do everything they

278
00:12:21,892 --> 00:12:24,573
Speaker 9: can to make it difficult and hard to run, and

279
00:12:24,973 --> 00:12:27,372
Speaker 9: that's really unfair. I think the idea is that's going

280
00:12:27,413 --> 00:12:28,693
Speaker 9: to they're going to move away from that.

281
00:12:30,453 --> 00:12:33,492
Speaker 6: Yeah, we're just yeah, sorry, god.

282
00:12:33,573 --> 00:12:35,132
Speaker 4: Well I was just going to say so so dicky

283
00:12:35,252 --> 00:12:38,173
Speaker 4: rules like we've seen the likes of Electric Care, for example,

284
00:12:38,173 --> 00:12:41,652
Speaker 4: they kicked off on this one about one drink minimum rules.

285
00:12:42,573 --> 00:12:44,133
Speaker 4: When you're at a first of all, it's a day

286
00:12:44,132 --> 00:12:46,973
Speaker 4: long thing. You're there to enjoy yourself and have maximum

287
00:12:47,012 --> 00:12:49,533
Speaker 4: sorry maximum a one drink per person. Is that the

288
00:12:49,573 --> 00:12:51,892
Speaker 4: sort of dicky rules that hopefully will be affected by

289
00:12:51,933 --> 00:12:53,053
Speaker 4: some of these these changes.

290
00:12:53,933 --> 00:12:56,053
Speaker 9: Well, yes it will be because if you have me

291
00:12:56,093 --> 00:12:58,412
Speaker 9: speak on this before, there are so many security and

292
00:12:58,773 --> 00:13:02,653
Speaker 9: alcohol prevention people at those gigs more than anywhere. Why

293
00:13:02,693 --> 00:13:05,012
Speaker 9: would you Why would you constrain a gig like that?

294
00:13:05,132 --> 00:13:07,333
Speaker 9: What if I said to you, guys, can I buy

295
00:13:07,333 --> 00:13:08,973
Speaker 9: you a drink? You said, yeah, bread, Oh should I

296
00:13:09,012 --> 00:13:11,973
Speaker 9: can't only buy one? So I'll go back three times?

297
00:13:11,973 --> 00:13:15,613
Speaker 6: Should I? What is going on here? It's just really

298
00:13:15,852 --> 00:13:16,492
Speaker 6: it's crazy.

299
00:13:16,612 --> 00:13:18,333
Speaker 2: I mean, and I've said this to year before when

300
00:13:18,372 --> 00:13:20,413
Speaker 2: we've interview in the past, and yet those people on

301
00:13:20,453 --> 00:13:22,493
Speaker 2: the way home can go to a bottle store and

302
00:13:22,533 --> 00:13:26,013
Speaker 2: buy fifteen bottles of one, one, two fives of gin.

303
00:13:26,693 --> 00:13:29,053
Speaker 2: You know, of course they can and when they're not,

304
00:13:29,773 --> 00:13:34,093
Speaker 2: you know, regulated by security in a safe environment. Well,

305
00:13:34,093 --> 00:13:37,253
Speaker 2: this make a real difference for medium and large festivals

306
00:13:37,252 --> 00:13:39,573
Speaker 2: because can you can you see yourself or people in

307
00:13:39,612 --> 00:13:43,252
Speaker 2: the industry doing more, say four hundred to one, nine

308
00:13:43,333 --> 00:13:45,373
Speaker 2: hundred and ninety nine person gigs, because that's whore you

309
00:13:45,372 --> 00:13:46,573
Speaker 2: have to go to the major planning.

310
00:13:47,492 --> 00:13:48,772
Speaker 6: Yes, that's what they're saying.

311
00:13:48,773 --> 00:13:51,012
Speaker 9: You don't have to go to all the major event

312
00:13:51,053 --> 00:13:54,173
Speaker 9: planning when you go up there less than two thousand. Well,

313
00:13:54,173 --> 00:13:56,492
Speaker 9: you still have to be responsible. You can't just go

314
00:13:56,213 --> 00:13:58,973
Speaker 9: you go helpful leather. But you know, it just means

315
00:13:59,012 --> 00:14:00,732
Speaker 9: it won't be as hard. And if it's very sensible,

316
00:14:00,732 --> 00:14:03,573
Speaker 9: because it means the smaller wineries or the smaller outdoor gigs,

317
00:14:03,653 --> 00:14:05,693
Speaker 9: the boot seat things don't have to go because you

318
00:14:05,732 --> 00:14:09,532
Speaker 9: can't it's cost way too much money. So that's very sensible.

319
00:14:09,533 --> 00:14:12,172
Speaker 9: It's a smart move. I think it's all going in

320
00:14:12,213 --> 00:14:12,813
Speaker 9: the right direction.

321
00:14:12,973 --> 00:14:14,252
Speaker 2: Oh that's good. Do you think it's going in the

322
00:14:14,293 --> 00:14:16,012
Speaker 2: right direction? But do you think it goes far enough?

323
00:14:17,612 --> 00:14:19,853
Speaker 9: Well, it's very if you read the professionalase, it's very

324
00:14:19,853 --> 00:14:22,133
Speaker 9: open ended. Yeah, So we just need to keep we

325
00:14:22,133 --> 00:14:24,493
Speaker 9: need to keep going. And one of the things they say,

326
00:14:24,573 --> 00:14:27,733
Speaker 9: is is that you know, simple, stable and practical rules. Well,

327
00:14:27,733 --> 00:14:31,253
Speaker 9: I agree that's practical, simple, like kwis what.

328
00:14:31,773 --> 00:14:37,133
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. And Preen Nichols, you know we've we've been

329
00:14:37,133 --> 00:14:40,533
Speaker 2: in business together in the past and and you're one

330
00:14:40,573 --> 00:14:42,013
Speaker 2: of the best in the business. And I know you're

331
00:14:42,013 --> 00:14:44,173
Speaker 2: at the top of this game, so I know you

332
00:14:44,213 --> 00:14:48,013
Speaker 2: love events. But from a societal level, how valuable for

333
00:14:48,053 --> 00:14:50,693
Speaker 2: the community are concerts gags? Events? And what do we

334
00:14:50,773 --> 00:14:52,573
Speaker 2: lose out when they become too hard to put on?

335
00:14:53,653 --> 00:14:53,853
Speaker 6: Yeah?

336
00:14:53,973 --> 00:14:56,053
Speaker 9: I think for the psyching of the of the community,

337
00:14:56,053 --> 00:14:59,333
Speaker 9: they're really good. For the psyche of the constituents that

338
00:14:59,373 --> 00:15:01,412
Speaker 9: you know that they're voting in the government, they're also

339
00:15:01,533 --> 00:15:03,973
Speaker 9: very very good. They take you to a place that

340
00:15:04,053 --> 00:15:05,573
Speaker 9: you know you can forget your woes and have a

341
00:15:05,573 --> 00:15:08,133
Speaker 9: good time with your mates and watch a great show

342
00:15:08,173 --> 00:15:10,253
Speaker 9: and whatever level you want to watch it on. But

343
00:15:10,693 --> 00:15:13,213
Speaker 9: I think it's judging by the amount of tickets that

344
00:15:13,253 --> 00:15:16,093
Speaker 9: we sell, people want to go to concerts. There's no

345
00:15:16,133 --> 00:15:18,613
Speaker 9: doubt about it. And I think moving on to something

346
00:15:18,653 --> 00:15:22,093
Speaker 9: else that this major events find they're talking about long

347
00:15:22,173 --> 00:15:24,453
Speaker 9: over d but boys a huge buzz in the industry

348
00:15:24,453 --> 00:15:24,693
Speaker 9: about it.

349
00:15:24,773 --> 00:15:26,453

352
00:15:33,453 --> 00:15:34,973
Speaker 3: the right direction to really appreciate you.

353
00:15:35,013 --> 00:15:35,373

Speaker 4: both in New Zealand and Australia. So step in the

360
00:15:50,893 --> 00:15:52,893
Speaker 4: right direction. But what do you say, oh one hundred

361
00:15:52,893 --> 00:15:54,853
Speaker 4: and eighty ten eighty, if you've tried to put on

362
00:15:54,973 --> 00:15:57,373
Speaker 4: an event, any sort of event, what with the roadblocks

363
00:15:57,413 --> 00:16:00,453
Speaker 4: you've faced and what was some of the ridiculous rules

364
00:16:00,453 --> 00:16:01,373
Speaker 4: that were imposed on you?

365
00:16:01,653 --> 00:16:04,573
Speaker 2: Or are you terrified of your fellow New Zealander and

366
00:16:04,613 --> 00:16:07,053
Speaker 2: you think that they need to be clamped down on

367
00:16:07,133 --> 00:16:11,253
Speaker 2: and controlled with an event and that the transport management

368
00:16:11,293 --> 00:16:15,253
Speaker 2: should get harsher and harsher, more road cones and less

369
00:16:15,253 --> 00:16:17,533
Speaker 2: ability to buy drinks when you're watching a band.

370
00:16:17,613 --> 00:16:19,853
Speaker 3: If that's you, by all means, come on through. It

371
00:16:19,933 --> 00:16:22,013
Speaker 3: is twenty four past one leading question.

Speaker 1: News Talk ZB.

383
00:17:12,573 --> 00:17:14,693
Speaker 4: Twenty seven past one. So the government has promised to

384
00:17:14,693 --> 00:17:17,413
Speaker 4: make some big changes to set up and make it

385
00:17:17,453 --> 00:17:20,413
Speaker 4: easier to set up at all events. Rather for organizers,

386
00:17:20,453 --> 00:17:22,173
Speaker 4: if you're in the game, what roadblocks have you come

387
00:17:22,253 --> 00:17:22,813
Speaker 4: up against?

388
00:17:23,053 --> 00:17:24,773
Speaker 2: Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty Yeah, and buying

389
00:17:24,813 --> 00:17:26,253
Speaker 2: in the game. It might just be going along to

390
00:17:26,413 --> 00:17:30,013
Speaker 2: an event or a concert at gig or whatever and

391
00:17:30,253 --> 00:17:35,333
Speaker 2: just notice what seemed to be illogical and overly punitive

392
00:17:35,453 --> 00:17:39,812
Speaker 2: rules around drinking, entry management, traffic management, the whole thing.

393
00:17:39,813 --> 00:17:42,052
Speaker 2: Because I think we've all seen that kind of stuff

394
00:17:42,493 --> 00:17:46,173
Speaker 2: and the event organizers take take the heat for that.

395
00:17:46,693 --> 00:17:49,373
Speaker 2: This Stexas says, as Brent still playing the drums, we

396
00:17:49,413 --> 00:17:52,813
Speaker 2: just talked to Brent Eckles before Brent Eckles from Eckles

397
00:17:53,853 --> 00:17:57,893
Speaker 2: Manager Entertainment, Great New Zealander and of course we didn't mention,

398
00:17:57,973 --> 00:18:00,373
Speaker 2: but he was a drummer for Space Waltz, Yes Out

399
00:18:00,613 --> 00:18:03,813
Speaker 2: on the Streid, Great song Citizen Band and of course

400
00:18:03,853 --> 00:18:07,213
Speaker 2: the Angels Australian rock is the Angels talented man. I'm

401
00:18:07,253 --> 00:18:10,173
Speaker 2: not sure if Instill playing the drums very good drummer,

402
00:18:10,293 --> 00:18:13,013
Speaker 2: but a son, Matt Ecles incredible drummer, one of the

403
00:18:13,053 --> 00:18:15,173
Speaker 2: best drummers I've ever seen in my life, and he's

404
00:18:15,173 --> 00:18:17,333
Speaker 2: had a very successful drumming career around the world. And

405
00:18:17,373 --> 00:18:19,812
Speaker 2: he is playing drums for Splittings in that reunion that's

406
00:18:19,813 --> 00:18:20,413
Speaker 2: happening down.

407
00:18:20,253 --> 00:18:23,693
Speaker 3: There, having fantastic talented, talented me The Skins are in

408
00:18:23,733 --> 00:18:24,293
Speaker 3: that family.

409
00:18:24,413 --> 00:18:24,693
Speaker 5: Love it.

410
00:18:24,693 --> 00:18:26,493
Speaker 3: Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number

411
00:18:26,493 --> 00:18:27,893
Speaker 3: to call get a Steve.

412
00:18:29,733 --> 00:18:30,213
Speaker 7: Hell Yeah.

413
00:18:30,453 --> 00:18:32,893
Speaker 11: I just want to mention the fact of the Sevens

414
00:18:33,093 --> 00:18:34,613
Speaker 11: used to be one of the Sevens that used to.

415
00:18:34,613 --> 00:18:38,053
Speaker 12: Be really, really good, and I'm not sure who destroyed it,

416
00:18:38,053 --> 00:18:40,253
Speaker 12: but between the council and the police.

417
00:18:40,053 --> 00:18:43,813
Speaker 13: They had enough epiphany that said that was there was too.

418
00:18:43,733 --> 00:18:45,613
Speaker 12: Much drinking and all that sort of carry on, and

419
00:18:46,133 --> 00:18:47,933
Speaker 12: it was the best party I've ever been to and

420
00:18:47,973 --> 00:18:50,133
Speaker 12: I'm pretty sure there'll be a thousands of other people

421
00:18:50,133 --> 00:18:50,853
Speaker 12: who agree with me.

422
00:18:51,093 --> 00:18:52,853
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm one of them.

423
00:18:53,173 --> 00:18:53,773
Speaker 13: Yeah, exactly.

424
00:18:53,813 --> 00:18:55,093
Speaker 12: It was awesome and then all of a sudden the

425
00:18:55,253 --> 00:18:56,973
Speaker 12: police said, you know, we've all been down to one

426
00:18:57,053 --> 00:18:59,973
Speaker 12: drink per of whatever. It was painful, and they just

427
00:19:00,093 --> 00:19:01,373
Speaker 12: slowly but surely they.

428
00:19:01,213 --> 00:19:03,373
Speaker 10: Brought us out of plet us out of a city.

429
00:19:03,853 --> 00:19:05,453
Speaker 7: The other thing will be they had.

430
00:19:05,333 --> 00:19:09,013
Speaker 12: Fifty arrests over a three day period of total of

431
00:19:09,013 --> 00:19:13,333
Speaker 12: seventy five thousand roughly. Yeah, the statistic's going to really help.

432
00:19:14,293 --> 00:19:17,013
Speaker 2: What it is is the sort of arrogance that the

433
00:19:17,173 --> 00:19:19,773
Speaker 2: audience that's turning up to these things isn't the audience

434
00:19:19,813 --> 00:19:21,653
Speaker 2: you want. I think I've seen that with cricket in

435
00:19:21,653 --> 00:19:25,053
Speaker 2: New Zealand. They decided that groups of young men going

436
00:19:25,093 --> 00:19:26,693
Speaker 2: along to the cricket and having a drink wasn't the

437
00:19:26,733 --> 00:19:30,133
Speaker 2: audience they wanted. They wanted, they wanted to change that.

438
00:19:30,213 --> 00:19:33,173
Speaker 2: They wanted families wanted all this. And if you've got

439
00:19:33,213 --> 00:19:35,253
Speaker 2: an audience, you've got to be careful because it's very

440
00:19:35,253 --> 00:19:37,333
Speaker 2: hard to get an audience if you've got a crowd

441
00:19:37,333 --> 00:19:38,573
Speaker 2: of people that want to go. And that was a

442
00:19:38,573 --> 00:19:40,853
Speaker 2: lot of young people wanted to go to the Sevens

443
00:19:40,853 --> 00:19:42,253
Speaker 2: and have a good time and dress up and have

444
00:19:42,293 --> 00:19:46,093
Speaker 2: a party, and Wellington would absolutely buzz over that weekend.

445
00:19:46,413 --> 00:19:48,373
Speaker 2: But they were like, no, these aren't the people that

446
00:19:48,413 --> 00:19:50,213
Speaker 2: we want to go. We want to change this up,

447
00:19:50,333 --> 00:19:54,053
Speaker 2: we want we don't like this. It seems too crazy,

448
00:19:54,893 --> 00:19:57,213
Speaker 2: it seems too anarchistic. And then they shut it down.

449
00:19:57,493 --> 00:19:59,893
Speaker 2: And then they shut it down, the rules down, and

450
00:19:59,933 --> 00:20:03,133
Speaker 2: then the Sevens is gone and we'll never get it back,

451
00:20:03,613 --> 00:20:06,973
Speaker 2: and Wellington is a lesser place for it because once

452
00:20:07,013 --> 00:20:09,493
Speaker 2: a year the city used to just light up. I

453
00:20:09,573 --> 00:20:10,573
Speaker 2: used to go down there every.

454
00:20:10,493 --> 00:20:11,893
Speaker 3: Year, one of the best events in the year.

455
00:20:12,013 --> 00:20:14,733
Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd go around the city everywhere, down by the water,

456
00:20:14,853 --> 00:20:18,413
Speaker 2: on that punishing bridge, everywhere you went, Yeah, on the concourse.

457
00:20:18,573 --> 00:20:22,493
Speaker 2: It was such a vible weekend. And gone. They destroyed it.

458
00:20:22,813 --> 00:20:25,253
Speaker 2: They absolutely destroyed it. And I wonder if any of

459
00:20:25,293 --> 00:20:27,013
Speaker 2: them if ever looked in the mirror and gone, well,

460
00:20:27,253 --> 00:20:30,933
Speaker 2: good on us, we ruined that and thing. Yeah, yeah, anyway,

461
00:20:30,933 --> 00:20:31,653
Speaker 2: I'm renting.

462
00:20:32,533 --> 00:20:35,093
Speaker 4: Well, Steve, I think you'd chare you know a lot

463
00:20:35,093 --> 00:20:36,613
Speaker 4: of what Matt said in that rent?

464
00:20:38,333 --> 00:20:38,813
Speaker 13: Thank you?

465
00:20:38,933 --> 00:20:42,253
Speaker 3: Yeah all right, yr, Yeah, but you're being y yeah,

466
00:20:42,253 --> 00:20:44,613
Speaker 3: because it is when they and we all remember it,

467
00:20:44,653 --> 00:20:48,133
Speaker 3: and they said we want to make it a family atmosphere,

468
00:20:48,253 --> 00:20:48,653
Speaker 3: and of.

469
00:20:48,533 --> 00:20:51,853
Speaker 4: Course everybody who was there for the party and drunk

470
00:20:51,893 --> 00:20:53,532
Speaker 4: people spend a lot of money, all right, they were

471
00:20:53,573 --> 00:20:56,853
Speaker 4: spending so much cash and Wellington bars and then they

472
00:20:56,893 --> 00:20:59,373
Speaker 4: spend the whole week in their hotels, they go and

473
00:20:59,413 --> 00:21:02,733
Speaker 4: buy stuff and retail shops and then like that, sorry,

474
00:21:02,813 --> 00:21:04,533
Speaker 4: we don't want to be a part of this idea

475
00:21:04,573 --> 00:21:05,853
Speaker 4: that we can't have a few drinks.

476
00:21:05,893 --> 00:21:08,613
Speaker 2: So then it was dead. Yeah, unreal. Yeah, well, I

477
00:21:08,653 --> 00:21:11,173
Speaker 2: mean and you think of all the events that just

478
00:21:11,213 --> 00:21:14,813
Speaker 2: haven't happened. Yeah, because people in advance of it went well,

479
00:21:15,453 --> 00:21:17,013
Speaker 2: the rules that they put on. The sevens are going

480
00:21:17,013 --> 00:21:18,773
Speaker 2: to put on stuff. There's great things that could have

481
00:21:18,813 --> 00:21:20,333
Speaker 2: had none of the cities ann and Wellington that have

482
00:21:20,573 --> 00:21:21,093

486
00:21:26,973 --> 00:21:29,173
Speaker 4: What sort of roadblocks did you come up against? And

487
00:21:29,213 --> 00:21:31,693
Speaker 4: are you hoping the council and government will get out

488
00:21:31,733 --> 00:21:33,013

509
00:22:44,693 --> 00:22:48,333

00:23:13,733 --> 00:23:16,213
Speaker 4: The government is promising changes to rules to make it

520
00:23:16,253 --> 00:23:20,973
Speaker 4: easier for organizers to run events, Associate Justice Minister Nicole mckeeth.

521
00:23:21,013 --> 00:23:23,373
Speaker 4: She says that feedback is open. They do want to

522
00:23:23,413 --> 00:23:26,853
Speaker 4: hear from organizers about what needs to change to make

523
00:23:26,893 --> 00:23:29,813
Speaker 4: it easier to run these events, festivals and other So

524
00:23:29,893 --> 00:23:31,733
Speaker 4: keen to hear from you, Oh eight hundred eighty ten

525
00:23:31,813 --> 00:23:33,413
Speaker 4: eighty what needs to change?

526
00:23:33,573 --> 00:23:36,933
Speaker 2: Yeah? And what crazy stuff have you seen at events

527
00:23:36,973 --> 00:23:41,573
Speaker 2: that you went that's stupid? Or do you think it

528
00:23:41,613 --> 00:23:43,373
Speaker 2: should be cracked down on more and you're happy or

529
00:23:43,373 --> 00:23:45,453
Speaker 2: you're happy with the way it is. Afternoon Cricket is

530
00:23:45,453 --> 00:23:47,093
Speaker 2: a good example, says the texture of how the fun

531
00:23:47,093 --> 00:23:49,173
Speaker 2: police have killed the atmosphere. We took our kids to

532
00:23:49,213 --> 00:23:51,573
Speaker 2: a cricket game in Alexandra. We have three young boys

533
00:23:51,613 --> 00:23:53,853
Speaker 2: and thought we would take a can of lemonade and

534
00:23:53,893 --> 00:23:55,773
Speaker 2: for them. On the gate. We were searched and told

535
00:23:55,813 --> 00:23:58,333
Speaker 2: we cannot take cans in. Then you go on and

536
00:23:58,373 --> 00:24:01,653
Speaker 2: it costs you a kidney to buy anything there. So

537
00:24:01,853 --> 00:24:04,733
Speaker 2: why by the going some events have made rules that

538
00:24:04,773 --> 00:24:07,253
Speaker 2: price themselves out of the market. Have a great day, Cam,

539
00:24:07,333 --> 00:24:09,893
Speaker 2: Thank you for your text. This Texas says we canceled

540
00:24:09,933 --> 00:24:13,773
Speaker 2: a twelve hundred patron gig on Wahiki Island due for

541
00:24:13,853 --> 00:24:16,613
Speaker 2: the long weekend in February. The council wanted us to

542
00:24:16,653 --> 00:24:20,173
Speaker 2: pay them twenty thousand for a migratory Oh god, a

543
00:24:20,213 --> 00:24:24,453
Speaker 2: migratory bird report. Cheap because our gig went from dusk

544
00:24:24,533 --> 00:24:28,733
Speaker 2: at nine till eleven pm, finishing eleven pm. How weak

545
00:24:28,813 --> 00:24:29,773
Speaker 2: do you think birds are?

546
00:24:30,373 --> 00:24:32,933
Speaker 3: They'll stay away? I mean birds are okay, they'll fly

547
00:24:33,013 --> 00:24:33,533
Speaker 3: somewhere else.

548
00:24:33,733 --> 00:24:36,773
Speaker 2: Humans first, well, said Matt. I honestly couldn't put it

549
00:24:36,773 --> 00:24:39,933
Speaker 2: better myself. SEVENS was shut down after that, damn John

550
00:24:40,013 --> 00:24:42,253
Speaker 2: Campbell program. Yeah, I wonder if John Campbell's ever looked

551
00:24:42,253 --> 00:24:45,093
Speaker 2: in the mirror. You know, his campaign against the Sevens

552
00:24:45,093 --> 00:24:48,373
Speaker 2: and just his team cutting together the worst things they

553
00:24:48,413 --> 00:24:51,893
Speaker 2: could to make it look terrible. And you know, sometimes,

554
00:24:51,933 --> 00:24:53,453
Speaker 2: because I know he's a sports fan, I wonder if

555
00:24:53,493 --> 00:24:55,812
Speaker 2: he if at just in moments of reflection go I

556
00:24:55,973 --> 00:24:58,093
Speaker 2: was a big part of getting the sevens shut down.

557
00:24:58,133 --> 00:24:58,773
Speaker 3: I hope he did.

558
00:24:58,933 --> 00:24:59,973
Speaker 2: Pete, welcome to the show.

559
00:25:01,733 --> 00:25:02,573
Speaker 15: How are you going atil?

560
00:25:03,293 --> 00:25:04,813
Speaker 2: Very good? What's your thoughts?

561
00:25:05,493 --> 00:25:10,013
Speaker 15: No, I reckone. They ruined the seamon is such a

562
00:25:10,013 --> 00:25:12,173
Speaker 15: good event and never thought was on my bucket list.

563
00:25:12,213 --> 00:25:13,733
Speaker 15: They took me on away from it because I didn't

564
00:25:13,733 --> 00:25:17,133
Speaker 15: get there there on time. But you know, all these

565
00:25:17,173 --> 00:25:19,213
Speaker 15: health and safety world to have a ruin, I've gone

566
00:25:19,293 --> 00:25:22,013
Speaker 15: over come from here in New Plymouth. Here we had

567
00:25:22,013 --> 00:25:25,893
Speaker 15: the bulge there. You think that you've got old games

568
00:25:25,893 --> 00:25:28,253
Speaker 15: that you said, the Mary Ward a very good job.

569
00:25:29,333 --> 00:25:29,973
Speaker 7: So you go around.

570
00:25:30,013 --> 00:25:31,893
Speaker 15: They used to walk around the walking talkies. They had

571
00:25:31,933 --> 00:25:36,053
Speaker 15: communications with the police or the government's trying to tell

572
00:25:36,133 --> 00:25:39,693
Speaker 15: us they're trying to cut down money on police. Been

573
00:25:39,733 --> 00:25:43,773
Speaker 15: on Tuesday, and if you want your cities to do well,

574
00:25:44,653 --> 00:25:47,973
Speaker 15: you should be encouraging and things. Who said they come

575
00:25:48,013 --> 00:25:51,573
Speaker 15: to your studies, hotels, everybody that does very well out

576
00:25:51,573 --> 00:25:53,133
Speaker 15: of these events, like they said they killed them all

577
00:25:53,173 --> 00:25:55,773
Speaker 15: you guys said before they ruined it whither there's gonna

578
00:25:55,773 --> 00:25:57,733
Speaker 15: be a few people steering on the seat or whatever,

579
00:25:58,493 --> 00:26:00,573
Speaker 15: the streets or whatever. But that's what the police was

580
00:26:00,733 --> 00:26:04,093
Speaker 15: to do. There's not many air grows, so what they

581
00:26:04,813 --> 00:26:06,653
Speaker 15: most people when they gave a constant I've seen them

582
00:26:06,653 --> 00:26:08,293
Speaker 15: myself in the mental a lot of concerts and stuff,

583
00:26:08,893 --> 00:26:11,453
Speaker 15: both drunken people. They are happy they're not there, of course,

584
00:26:11,493 --> 00:26:16,052
Speaker 15: egg row. No, the people are there, of course, that's all.

585
00:26:16,093 --> 00:26:19,013
Speaker 15: That's the points of some sub place, non duty. But

586
00:26:19,093 --> 00:26:21,173
Speaker 15: they have a petty wagon park at the hill, like

587
00:26:21,293 --> 00:26:23,773
Speaker 15: hearing the balls where they might be. But the old

588
00:26:23,773 --> 00:26:26,053
Speaker 15: one gets drunked, is touck them on the petty wagon.

589
00:26:26,173 --> 00:26:28,293
Speaker 15: Tuck him on the selves one night and so oh

590
00:26:28,413 --> 00:26:32,053
Speaker 15: you've you've good to see you. You've changed your ways

591
00:26:32,053 --> 00:26:33,573
Speaker 15: of think and let them go. That's all you have

592
00:26:33,693 --> 00:26:36,493
Speaker 15: to do, and just care it pushed. These events are

593
00:26:36,653 --> 00:26:38,613
Speaker 15: very good for your promises.

594
00:26:39,013 --> 00:26:43,253
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, I agree with you one hundred percent. We

595
00:26:43,293 --> 00:26:45,253
Speaker 2: want to we want to roll out the red carpet

596
00:26:45,333 --> 00:26:46,893
Speaker 2: for for for these events. Yeah.

597
00:26:47,933 --> 00:26:52,293
Speaker 4: Nine two is the text number plenty coming through like

598
00:26:52,413 --> 00:26:56,293
Speaker 4: this one. Getay boys, what this will mean, the is

599
00:26:56,373 --> 00:26:58,933
Speaker 4: that people just smuggle their own booze and drugs into

600
00:26:59,053 --> 00:27:02,013
Speaker 4: these festivals. The idea of a one drink maximum is

601
00:27:02,213 --> 00:27:05,853
Speaker 4: such a punishing rule. It's bad for the festival organizers.

602
00:27:05,933 --> 00:27:08,733
Speaker 4: It's bad for us as punters. The only and I

603
00:27:08,813 --> 00:27:11,293
Speaker 4: still go to these festivals is to support those guys.

604
00:27:11,413 --> 00:27:14,853
Speaker 2: But it is a terrible, terrible rule. This Texas makes

605
00:27:14,893 --> 00:27:17,293
Speaker 2: an interesting point, and I think this has been raised

606
00:27:17,373 --> 00:27:20,613
Speaker 2: quite a lot, but the severe alcohol rules just makes

607
00:27:21,333 --> 00:27:23,933
Speaker 2: the kids smuggle drugs or other things into festivals as

608
00:27:23,973 --> 00:27:26,093
Speaker 2: it's too hard to get a drink in them. Yeah,

609
00:27:26,173 --> 00:27:29,773
Speaker 2: I mean that's true. And you know that has been

610
00:27:30,053 --> 00:27:36,173
Speaker 2: the outcome of the increased pressure on alcohol sales and

611
00:27:36,653 --> 00:27:38,493
Speaker 2: shutting them down at events. Is it's just put pushed

612
00:27:38,573 --> 00:27:40,893
Speaker 2: kids to illegal substances.

613
00:27:41,053 --> 00:27:41,213
Speaker 6: Yep.

614
00:27:42,453 --> 00:27:46,853
Speaker 2: Yeah, And look, in my opinion, they can be a

615
00:27:46,893 --> 00:27:48,613
Speaker 2: lot more dangerous because you know, they haven't been put

616
00:27:48,653 --> 00:27:50,813
Speaker 2: together in a factory, they haven't been regulated, they haven't

617
00:27:51,093 --> 00:27:54,812
Speaker 2: they can be anything to the point now where at

618
00:27:54,893 --> 00:27:59,013
Speaker 2: festivals there's stations to check people's drugs. Meanwhile, they could

619
00:27:59,013 --> 00:27:59,533
Speaker 2: just have a drink.

620
00:27:59,693 --> 00:28:02,813
Speaker 4: Exactly, Oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number

621
00:28:02,893 --> 00:28:05,253
Speaker 4: to call what needs to change when it comes to

622
00:28:05,493 --> 00:28:08,213
Speaker 4: setting up a festival, and if you've been to one recently,

623
00:28:08,413 --> 00:28:09,813
Speaker 4: what stupid rules.

624
00:28:09,613 --> 00:28:12,533
Speaker 2: Do you see that absolutely needs some government attention. The

625
00:28:12,653 --> 00:28:14,573
Speaker 2: Texas says they really need to triple the amount of

626
00:28:14,613 --> 00:28:17,653
Speaker 2: road cones. Imagine how safe having three billion road cones

627
00:28:17,693 --> 00:28:18,853
Speaker 2: and one stretch of road would be?

628
00:28:19,253 --> 00:28:23,613
Speaker 5: Very a fresh take on took back.

629
00:28:23,813 --> 00:28:27,213
Speaker 1: It's Matt Heath and Taylor Adams afternoons have your say

630
00:28:27,333 --> 00:28:30,613
Speaker 1: on eight hundred eighty ten eighty youth talks that'd be so.

631
00:28:30,733 --> 00:28:33,213
Speaker 4: The government is promising changes to make it easier for

632
00:28:33,373 --> 00:28:37,053
Speaker 4: organizers to run festivals and events. What stupid rules have

633
00:28:37,133 --> 00:28:38,933
Speaker 4: you come across if you have attended one of these

634
00:28:38,933 --> 00:28:42,053
Speaker 4: eventsal festivals? Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty sues,

635
00:28:42,373 --> 00:28:43,413
Speaker 4: Welcome to the show.

636
00:28:44,133 --> 00:28:47,773
Speaker 16: Hi boys. I thought you might remember. In January twenty

637
00:28:47,933 --> 00:28:52,533
Speaker 16: twenty three, UB forty had a concert in Nelson and

638
00:28:52,653 --> 00:28:58,333
Speaker 16: I think Dragon went as well, and the organizers had

639
00:28:58,573 --> 00:29:02,293
Speaker 16: applied for the wrong license, which meant because they were

640
00:29:02,373 --> 00:29:05,893
Speaker 16: selling alcohol, they decided, like I'm sure it was the

641
00:29:06,013 --> 00:29:09,053
Speaker 16: day before or on the day that they weren't going

642
00:29:09,133 --> 00:29:11,373
Speaker 16: to let people in under sixteen years.

643
00:29:11,173 --> 00:29:12,573
Speaker 2: Of age that's right.

644
00:29:12,693 --> 00:29:18,533
Speaker 16: Now they went through and refunded those ones. But I mean,

645
00:29:18,653 --> 00:29:23,813
Speaker 16: that's just there was so ridiculous, and somebody from the

646
00:29:23,933 --> 00:29:26,493
Speaker 16: council or the police would have signed off on that

647
00:29:27,333 --> 00:29:29,613
Speaker 16: application anyway. You think they would have said to them,

648
00:29:29,653 --> 00:29:32,613
Speaker 16: I'm of them as a major event. You think they

649
00:29:32,653 --> 00:29:34,493
Speaker 16: would have said to them, hey, guys, are you sure

650
00:29:34,573 --> 00:29:37,173
Speaker 16: this is the right? Yeah, you know what I'm seeing?

651
00:29:37,453 --> 00:29:40,853
Speaker 2: And it's so silly because at a if you go

652
00:29:40,973 --> 00:29:44,533
Speaker 2: to see the all blacks, right, so on Saturday, there'll

653
00:29:44,533 --> 00:29:46,573
Speaker 2: be all blacks at any park and adults will be

654
00:29:46,613 --> 00:29:48,293
Speaker 2: able to drink and kids will be there and there

655
00:29:48,293 --> 00:29:52,693
Speaker 2: won't be a single problem. So there's a precedent that's

656
00:29:52,813 --> 00:29:54,813
Speaker 2: just so clear and obvious. So ever who said that

657
00:29:54,893 --> 00:29:56,853
Speaker 2: couldn't go ahead. And the same thing happened to Lane

658
00:29:56,893 --> 00:30:00,653
Speaker 2: Way in Auckland. So they initially said yes, and the

659
00:30:00,733 --> 00:30:03,653
Speaker 2: year before they'd allowed sixteen to eighteen year olds in there,

660
00:30:03,693 --> 00:30:07,893
Speaker 2: and just before the festival they said no, sixteen to

661
00:30:08,333 --> 00:30:10,293
Speaker 2: sixteen and seventeen year olds will not be allowed in here.

662
00:30:10,333 --> 00:30:11,813
Speaker 2: They we're never going to be allowed to drink in there,

663
00:30:11,853 --> 00:30:13,573
Speaker 2: but they won't be allowed in here at all. And

664
00:30:13,653 --> 00:30:16,613
Speaker 2: then we'll monitor to see how it goes. Quite apart

665
00:30:16,613 --> 00:30:18,693
Speaker 2: from the fact the Lane Wave Festival the year before

666
00:30:18,733 --> 00:30:20,733
Speaker 2: there had been no problems and it had been that way,

667
00:30:21,133 --> 00:30:23,413
Speaker 2: so it was just it was a view to make

668
00:30:23,453 --> 00:30:27,013
Speaker 2: it more difficult. And I believe it comes from anti

669
00:30:27,093 --> 00:30:31,453
Speaker 2: alcohol activists who have a way of looking to view

670
00:30:31,453 --> 00:30:33,653
Speaker 2: the world that's different from the rest of us. Most

671
00:30:33,693 --> 00:30:36,533
Speaker 2: of us New Zealanders suits the other years.

672
00:30:36,693 --> 00:30:38,813
Speaker 16: And I agree you've just reminded me. I went to

673
00:30:39,533 --> 00:30:42,933
Speaker 16: the Abs at Eden Park with a big group of

674
00:30:43,013 --> 00:30:47,053
Speaker 16: people and we went there to get a drink, you know,

675
00:30:47,173 --> 00:30:50,413
Speaker 16: after halftime or whatever it was, and they said, oh, sorry,

676
00:30:51,293 --> 00:30:53,533
Speaker 16: we have to shut the bar an hour before the

677
00:30:53,693 --> 00:30:56,973
Speaker 16: end of the venue as the events that ride, and

678
00:30:57,573 --> 00:30:58,773
Speaker 16: so we couldn't get a drink.

679
00:30:59,373 --> 00:31:00,773
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's over.

680
00:31:01,373 --> 00:31:03,453
Speaker 16: I know they do that at the cricket as well.

681
00:31:03,613 --> 00:31:08,973
Speaker 16: I mean this, I don't get that. We're all adults.

682
00:31:09,653 --> 00:31:12,093
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you think some common sense just looking at

683
00:31:12,133 --> 00:31:14,293
Speaker 4: that story you mentioned there with the UB forty concert

684
00:31:14,333 --> 00:31:17,053
Speaker 4: in Nelson, so it was two hours before the festival

685
00:31:17,173 --> 00:31:19,213
Speaker 4: was to go ahead. If you're part of that, and

686
00:31:19,293 --> 00:31:23,293
Speaker 4: it's these guys have just got no idea about what's

687
00:31:23,373 --> 00:31:25,413
Speaker 4: going on. In the real world to look at that,

688
00:31:25,533 --> 00:31:27,533
Speaker 4: and yes it was an oversight by the organizers, but

689
00:31:27,653 --> 00:31:30,693
Speaker 4: to just say, hey, look, no problem to UB forty

690
00:31:30,773 --> 00:31:32,293
Speaker 4: concerts in Rutherford Park.

691
00:31:32,373 --> 00:31:35,293
Speaker 2: It's during the dates. It is a family event. Every

692
00:31:35,493 --> 00:31:38,733
Speaker 2: sporting event that ever happens allowed adults and children in there,

693
00:31:38,813 --> 00:31:40,413
Speaker 2: and the adults have been out to drink, so this

694
00:31:40,573 --> 00:31:42,773
Speaker 2: is not out of the ordinary. Let's just go ahead

695
00:31:42,813 --> 00:31:47,613
Speaker 2: with that, wouldn't it be nice? Yeah? Yeah, all right,

696
00:31:47,733 --> 00:31:50,373
Speaker 2: you go, well, thank you very much, Thank you see later.

697
00:31:50,493 --> 00:31:52,733
Speaker 4: Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number to

698
00:31:52,773 --> 00:31:55,013
Speaker 4: call if you've recently been to a festival and.

699
00:31:55,013 --> 00:31:57,533
Speaker 3: Seen some stupid rules. Love to hear from you.

700
00:31:58,173 --> 00:32:00,453
Speaker 4: It seems a lot as based around alcohol, because it

701
00:32:00,493 --> 00:32:03,253
Speaker 4: does seem to be this anti alcohol brigade in the background.

702
00:32:03,453 --> 00:32:05,213
Speaker 2: This is the one that really annoys me, and it's

703
00:32:05,333 --> 00:32:08,933
Speaker 2: it's treating adults like babies. So because some people have

704
00:32:09,053 --> 00:32:12,573
Speaker 2: done some bad stuff somewhere on some area in town,

705
00:32:12,933 --> 00:32:15,733
Speaker 2: the people that are going along to an event which

706
00:32:15,853 --> 00:32:19,533
Speaker 2: they've paid money to and their inside security and they're

707
00:32:19,533 --> 00:32:21,693
Speaker 2: being served to get crazy rules like this one here.

708
00:32:21,693 --> 00:32:24,733
Speaker 2: Classic example is the summer concert full of US forty

709
00:32:24,773 --> 00:32:27,253
Speaker 2: to six year olds and they crack open your cans

710
00:32:27,573 --> 00:32:31,213
Speaker 2: so they start going flat from the get go. Bloody, ridiculous.

711
00:32:31,253 --> 00:32:33,413
Speaker 2: The beers are expensive enough. I'm not trying to take

712
00:32:33,453 --> 00:32:36,893
Speaker 2: any home. Cheers, guys, Zane spot On treated like an

713
00:32:36,933 --> 00:32:43,333
Speaker 2: absolute kid to day intrusted, infantilization, infantilization of society where

714
00:32:43,373 --> 00:32:45,893
Speaker 2: you treat everyone like a baby. And the general rule

715
00:32:46,053 --> 00:32:49,973
Speaker 2: from counsels and government is you, guys are not capable

716
00:32:50,013 --> 00:32:53,773
Speaker 2: of making good decisions. You're not capable of looking after yourself.

717
00:32:53,853 --> 00:32:56,093
Speaker 2: As this Texas says the event chat as a quintessential

718
00:32:56,133 --> 00:32:58,693
Speaker 2: example of the tail wagging the dog. We have regulated

719
00:32:58,773 --> 00:33:00,813
Speaker 2: for the few, not the majority who go and have

720
00:33:00,933 --> 00:33:01,973
Speaker 2: a responsible good time.

721
00:33:02,133 --> 00:33:04,933
Speaker 4: Yeah, so feedback is open. What changes would you like

722
00:33:05,013 --> 00:33:07,573
Speaker 4: the government to implement when it comes to setting up

723
00:33:07,573 --> 00:33:10,573
Speaker 4: events and making it easier to run festivals? Give us

724
00:33:10,573 --> 00:33:12,413

Speaker 5: It's Mad Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons.

730
00:33:25,613 --> 00:33:28,493

731
00:33:28,533 --> 00:33:30,413
Speaker 4: ten eighty is the number to call if you've come

732
00:33:30,453 --> 00:33:31,573
Speaker 4: across those lovedy hear from a.

733
00:33:31,573 --> 00:33:33,613
Speaker 2: Well, it looks like they might be help at hand

734
00:33:34,173 --> 00:33:37,573
Speaker 2: with these new regulations coming through from Associate Justice Minister

735
00:33:37,933 --> 00:33:41,053
Speaker 2: Nicole McKee. All Right, New Zealand is the land of no,

736
00:33:41,213 --> 00:33:43,773
Speaker 2: says this Texter. I call it the New Zealand complex.

737
00:33:43,853 --> 00:33:45,733
Speaker 2: Someone may get hurt, so we have to hide it

738
00:33:45,853 --> 00:33:47,973
Speaker 2: away at all costs so nobody gets hit. It's another

739
00:33:47,973 --> 00:33:51,093
Speaker 2: example dogs. We often hide them behind high walls. Then

740
00:33:51,133 --> 00:33:53,533
Speaker 2: they aren't socialized and they don't know how to behave

741
00:33:53,613 --> 00:33:57,133
Speaker 2: people around people overseas, they go into restaurants. Yeah, it's

742
00:33:57,133 --> 00:34:00,333
Speaker 2: the infantalization I call it of the nation.

743
00:34:00,893 --> 00:34:02,733
Speaker 3: Yeah, New Kim, how are you?

744
00:34:03,813 --> 00:34:07,373
Speaker 17: Oh good? Thank you good? Now the s we're for

745
00:34:08,373 --> 00:34:10,732
Speaker 17: one of the Puncture, one of the Sevens games down

746
00:34:10,853 --> 00:34:13,573
Speaker 17: there about I don't know, five or six years ago.

747
00:34:13,692 --> 00:34:17,893
Speaker 17: And so before they closed it, uh but I'll say

748
00:34:17,893 --> 00:34:20,373
Speaker 17: you is likely said they started to trick us like kids.

749
00:34:20,453 --> 00:34:23,013
Speaker 17: And there was I reckon one of the just the

750
00:34:23,093 --> 00:34:26,853
Speaker 17: best festival in the world, a crick and sevens, you know,

751
00:34:27,133 --> 00:34:29,173
Speaker 17: and it was such a great day. It was no

752
00:34:29,373 --> 00:34:33,533
Speaker 17: handsholds yet there handful idiot. But apart from that, that

753
00:34:33,733 --> 00:34:35,973
Speaker 17: was one of the greatest semons in the world. I

754
00:34:35,973 --> 00:34:37,773
Speaker 17: don't reckon they still could be.

755
00:34:38,813 --> 00:34:41,133
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that was that was part of the fun though, right.

756
00:34:41,213 --> 00:34:42,733
Speaker 4: You knew that people went there for a bit of

757
00:34:42,773 --> 00:34:46,493
Speaker 4: a party and they drunk, you know, a fear whack.

758
00:34:46,573 --> 00:34:47,453
Speaker 2: But that was part of it.

759
00:34:47,653 --> 00:34:50,173
Speaker 4: And you know, this whole idea that they started to

760
00:34:50,173 --> 00:34:52,652
Speaker 4: get a bit precious that there's a few rest when

761
00:34:52,693 --> 00:34:55,613
Speaker 4: you've got thirty thousand people coming to Wellington Stadium and

762
00:34:55,733 --> 00:34:57,893
Speaker 4: spending all that money in the city. I mean, that's

763
00:34:57,933 --> 00:35:01,653
Speaker 4: part and pastor of having a vibrant, energetic festivals.

764
00:35:01,653 --> 00:35:03,373
Speaker 2: People are going to have a good time and have drinks.

765
00:35:04,413 --> 00:35:04,813
Speaker 16: That's right.

766
00:35:04,933 --> 00:35:07,053
Speaker 17: That was that was our wish had away. We had

767
00:35:07,093 --> 00:35:10,133
Speaker 17: a rampall, so a feen of us went down from

768
00:35:10,213 --> 00:35:13,213
Speaker 17: Awkwards and the whole region. A lot of great threekirs

769
00:35:13,253 --> 00:35:15,973
Speaker 17: you know, so coat, yeah.

770
00:35:16,413 --> 00:35:18,853
Speaker 4: Yep, good on you new Kim, And sadly, I don't

771
00:35:18,853 --> 00:35:20,293
Speaker 4: know if we're getting the sevens back ever.

772
00:35:20,653 --> 00:35:22,813
Speaker 2: Well This Texas says the death of the Sevens was

773
00:35:22,853 --> 00:35:26,692
Speaker 2: the first puncture in the absolute deflation of Wellington. As

774
00:35:26,733 --> 00:35:28,693
Speaker 2: a side note, after a long day of gathering a

775
00:35:28,733 --> 00:35:30,453
Speaker 2: large head of steam, a bunch of us jumped off

776
00:35:30,493 --> 00:35:33,853
Speaker 2: the punishing bridge into the lagoon, dried off, carried on

777
00:35:33,933 --> 00:35:37,093
Speaker 2: into towns and days. Yeah, Nikko, it's.

778
00:35:36,973 --> 00:35:39,213
Speaker 3: Such a great event, and so said what happened to it?

779
00:35:39,293 --> 00:35:40,413
Speaker 3: But yeah, good fun.

780
00:35:40,613 --> 00:35:43,373
Speaker 2: Well we've shall we keep this going because we've got

781
00:35:43,373 --> 00:35:44,933
Speaker 2: we've got a lot of calls to get through one

782
00:35:45,013 --> 00:35:48,053
Speaker 2: hundred and eighty ten eighty. We've also got a bunch

783
00:35:48,093 --> 00:35:50,453
Speaker 2: of texts coming through. So should we keep us going

784
00:35:50,533 --> 00:35:52,133
Speaker 2: to talk till till two thirty?

785
00:35:52,253 --> 00:35:54,413
Speaker 4: Yep, absolutely, we've got full boards at the moment. If

786
00:35:54,453 --> 00:35:55,973
Speaker 4: you can't get through, give us a buzz i.

787
00:35:56,013 --> 00:35:56,133
Speaker 6: Eight.

788
00:35:56,133 --> 00:35:58,253
Speaker 2: One hundred and eighty ten eighty is that number to call.

789
00:35:58,613 --> 00:36:02,773
Speaker 4: If you are in the events festival industry love to

790
00:36:02,813 --> 00:36:04,973
Speaker 4: hear from you, what roadblocks have you come up against

791
00:36:05,173 --> 00:36:06,973
Speaker 4: and if you've recently been to a festival, what were

792
00:36:07,013 --> 00:36:10,333
Speaker 4: the stupid rules that you faced? Feedback is open. The

793
00:36:10,373 --> 00:36:12,293
Speaker 4: government are looking to make changes, so they keen to

794
00:36:12,373 --> 00:36:14,933
Speaker 4: hear from you, and we are too. Nineteen nine two

795
00:36:14,933 --> 00:36:15,493
Speaker 4: is the text.

796
00:36:15,373 --> 00:36:18,893
Speaker 2: Number afternoon read the events rules. Many pointless restrictions get

797
00:36:18,933 --> 00:36:22,413
Speaker 2: put in place, but we're hopelesully badly behaved around alcohol.

798
00:36:22,813 --> 00:36:25,693
Speaker 2: I recently went to Hellfest in France. Sixty five thousand

799
00:36:25,693 --> 00:36:28,292
Speaker 2: people at a rock and heavy metal festival, sixteen hours

800
00:36:28,293 --> 00:36:30,172
Speaker 2: a day for four days, no little, no drunkn there's

801
00:36:30,213 --> 00:36:33,493
Speaker 2: no fighting. You would see worse at a Warriors game

802
00:36:33,653 --> 00:36:37,373
Speaker 2: every week. But I think that poor behavior by Kiwis

803
00:36:37,853 --> 00:36:41,013
Speaker 2: is part of as the result of the infantilization of us.

804
00:36:41,293 --> 00:36:44,533
Speaker 2: You treat people like children and then they start drinking

805
00:36:44,693 --> 00:36:47,053
Speaker 2: and binge drinking because they don't know how many drinks

806
00:36:47,053 --> 00:36:48,573
Speaker 2: they're going to get. It could be shut down at

807
00:36:48,573 --> 00:36:51,653
Speaker 2: any point. The whole thing gets so shut down that

808
00:36:51,813 --> 00:36:54,333
Speaker 2: people just start behaving like children because you treat them

809
00:36:54,413 --> 00:36:54,813
Speaker 2: like children.

810
00:36:54,893 --> 00:36:57,293
Speaker 4: That's why we pre low right before these big events,

811
00:36:57,333 --> 00:36:59,453
Speaker 4: and also why a lot of people try to smuggle

812
00:36:59,533 --> 00:37:02,173
Speaker 4: booze into the likes of the cricket and also the

813
00:37:02,253 --> 00:37:02,973
Speaker 4: rugby as well.

814
00:37:03,693 --> 00:37:04,413
Speaker 3: But give us a call.

815
00:37:04,493 --> 00:37:06,813
Speaker 4: Oh eight, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the

816
00:37:06,973 --> 00:37:09,653
Speaker 4: number to call. Nine to nine two is the text number.

817
00:37:10,253 --> 00:37:12,973
Speaker 4: And just quickly before we hit the news, there's quite

818
00:37:12,973 --> 00:37:15,212
Speaker 4: a few texts coming through about new names for the show.

819
00:37:15,293 --> 00:37:16,413
Speaker 2: I quite like this one.

820
00:37:17,333 --> 00:37:23,293
Speaker 4: Matt Heath and the Trailer Park TIMU show. I don't

821
00:37:23,293 --> 00:37:24,813
Speaker 4: know if it's that clever, but I really like that

822
00:37:24,893 --> 00:37:25,853
Speaker 4: show Trailer Park Boys.

823
00:37:25,973 --> 00:37:28,213
Speaker 2: Hey, Matt and Tyler, if my behavior is not illegal,

824
00:37:28,293 --> 00:37:29,893
Speaker 2: you don't have the right to tell me what I

825
00:37:30,053 --> 00:37:32,293
Speaker 2: can and can't do. And if my behavior is illegal,

826
00:37:32,373 --> 00:37:36,013
Speaker 2: call the cops. Otherwise is TFU It's from Rob. Yeah,

827
00:37:36,093 --> 00:37:37,453
Speaker 2: good on your Rob. Yeah. I mean that's the thing

828
00:37:37,493 --> 00:37:39,093
Speaker 2: I often think about that. It's a strange thing when

829
00:37:39,093 --> 00:37:41,732
Speaker 2: they sting people for being intoxicated. Right, that's a state

830
00:37:41,773 --> 00:37:43,933
Speaker 2: of mind. You can't control someone's state of mind. Yeah.

831
00:37:44,133 --> 00:37:47,573
Speaker 2: So if they're intoxicator but not doing anything wrong, they're

832
00:37:47,693 --> 00:37:50,613
Speaker 2: just walking around being a bit of a friendly person. Yeah,

833
00:37:50,853 --> 00:37:53,533
Speaker 2: then it's a really odd moral decision that we make

834
00:37:53,693 --> 00:37:55,733
Speaker 2: that they are doing something wrong. That's just what's in

835
00:37:55,773 --> 00:37:58,732
Speaker 2: their head. They're not coming to any crimes, then let

836
00:37:58,853 --> 00:37:59,133
Speaker 2: them be.

837
00:37:59,373 --> 00:38:02,933
Speaker 3: Yeah, nicely said, right, New Sport and weather is coming up.

838
00:38:02,973 --> 00:38:04,053
Speaker 2: But we are carrying this on.

839
00:38:04,213 --> 00:38:06,652
Speaker 4: If you can't get through, keep trying. Oh, eight hundred

840
00:38:06,653 --> 00:38:08,573
Speaker 4: and eighty ten eighty is the number of four you're

841
00:38:08,573 --> 00:38:08,933
Speaker 4: listening to.

842
00:38:09,053 --> 00:38:11,172
Speaker 2: Matt and Tyler. Stay right here.

00:39:39,653 --> 00:39:41,733
Speaker 2: All right, okay, then all right.

868
00:39:41,733 --> 00:39:44,533
Speaker 4: All right, so let's get back into this. So the

869
00:39:44,613 --> 00:39:47,733
Speaker 4: government is promising big changes to licensing rules to make

870
00:39:47,733 --> 00:39:50,253
Speaker 4: it easier for organizers to run events, but they are

871
00:39:50,333 --> 00:39:52,693
Speaker 4: looking for feedback as well. So if you're in the

872
00:39:53,173 --> 00:39:56,373
Speaker 4: event industry, what changes are needed, and if you've recently

873
00:39:56,453 --> 00:39:59,172
Speaker 4: been to a festival, what stupid rules have you seen

874
00:39:59,253 --> 00:40:02,053
Speaker 4: that needs to be addressed by the government or maybe

875
00:40:02,133 --> 00:40:03,093
Speaker 4: even the Council itself.

876
00:40:03,133 --> 00:40:05,133
Speaker 3: Oh eighte hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number

877
00:40:05,213 --> 00:40:06,053
Speaker 3: to call and.

878
00:40:06,173 --> 00:40:09,373
Speaker 2: Side topic because some people around into on the streets

879
00:40:09,373 --> 00:40:11,373
Speaker 2: suggested that we change the name of the show to

880
00:40:11,533 --> 00:40:15,573
Speaker 2: the Matt Heath and Tyler Swift Show due Doo Tyler's

881
00:40:15,853 --> 00:40:18,693
Speaker 2: repeated Taylor Swift topics that we do. She's good, didn't she?

882
00:40:18,933 --> 00:40:21,853
Speaker 2: A few people have been suggesting your names to the show. Hi, guys,

883
00:40:21,933 --> 00:40:23,453
Speaker 2: love the show and have been listening since the start.

884
00:40:23,693 --> 00:40:25,613
Speaker 2: Read the name. There are a few for you to consider.

885
00:40:26,053 --> 00:40:29,213
Speaker 2: Matt and Tyler unfiltered. Oh nice, I like that classy

886
00:40:29,413 --> 00:40:32,493
Speaker 2: double shot with Matt and Tyler. Oh, the Matt and

887
00:40:32,533 --> 00:40:36,893
Speaker 2: Tyler Mix, the Afternoon Lunch Brunt, No, the after Lunch Bunch, No,

888
00:40:37,013 --> 00:40:38,133
Speaker 2: the after lunch Brunch.

889
00:40:38,053 --> 00:40:40,973
Speaker 3: The after lunch brunch. Give that man a job that

890
00:40:41,093 --> 00:40:42,733
Speaker 3: is vantesta. We'll get him on the payroll.

891
00:40:42,893 --> 00:40:45,373
Speaker 2: All right, back to the topic in hand, This whole

892
00:40:45,373 --> 00:40:48,453
Speaker 2: conversation is evil, Like, seriously, come on, boys, will you

893
00:40:48,533 --> 00:40:51,053
Speaker 2: take responsibility if someone dies at one of your out

894
00:40:51,133 --> 00:40:53,093
Speaker 2: control festivals you want to run? To be fair, I

895
00:40:53,133 --> 00:40:55,413
Speaker 2: don't want to run those festivals. Running a festival is

896
00:40:55,413 --> 00:40:57,933
Speaker 2: an incredibly stressful occupation, and the people that do it

897
00:40:58,013 --> 00:40:59,973
Speaker 2: do it so well. The bread Echos of the worlds,

898
00:41:00,213 --> 00:41:03,333
Speaker 2: the Ducos of this world, you know, the electric avenues,

899
00:41:03,373 --> 00:41:07,213
Speaker 2: all those things. They are incredibly complicated events that are

900
00:41:07,293 --> 00:41:10,653
Speaker 2: run so very well to spite what the councils and

901
00:41:10,893 --> 00:41:14,652
Speaker 2: regulations do to them. But to continue the text, I've

902
00:41:14,693 --> 00:41:17,493
Speaker 2: been sidetracked on one word. Out of control fistles you

903
00:41:17,533 --> 00:41:20,013
Speaker 2: want to run. I don't think she really anyway, So anyway,

904
00:41:20,013 --> 00:41:23,013
Speaker 2: carry out to continue. The rules are made by smarter

905
00:41:23,093 --> 00:41:26,413
Speaker 2: people than you. You don't know everything. Bad things happen

906
00:41:26,453 --> 00:41:30,413
Speaker 2: when people drink. Slash live near a park, Oh, drink,

907
00:41:30,533 --> 00:41:32,692
Speaker 2: I live near a park. I see drunk people every night,

908
00:41:32,973 --> 00:41:36,133
Speaker 2: drinking on the picnic tables, leave their cans and chips

909
00:41:36,173 --> 00:41:39,093
Speaker 2: behind A one hundred thousand person festival full of drunks,

910
00:41:39,173 --> 00:41:43,653
Speaker 2: no thanks and grow up. That's interesting because so this

911
00:41:43,813 --> 00:41:47,653
Speaker 2: person's example of terrible behavior is leaving the cans and

912
00:41:47,773 --> 00:41:51,453
Speaker 2: chips behind and look absolutely put a big believer in

913
00:41:51,533 --> 00:41:54,253
Speaker 2: being a tidy Kiwi. Put your cans and your chips

914
00:41:54,373 --> 00:41:55,893
Speaker 2: and the recycling and the rubbish absolutely.

915
00:41:55,973 --> 00:41:57,573
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, look after this beautiful country.

916
00:41:58,333 --> 00:42:00,053
Speaker 2: This text could have come up with a better example

917
00:42:00,093 --> 00:42:02,933
Speaker 2: of terrible behavior than leaving their cans and chips behind.

918
00:42:03,093 --> 00:42:05,172
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got to say the part that's stuck out

919
00:42:05,213 --> 00:42:07,333
Speaker 4: for me was that there were people smarter than you

920
00:42:07,613 --> 00:42:09,053
Speaker 4: coming up with these sort of rules.

921
00:42:09,493 --> 00:42:10,252
Speaker 2: Is that really true?

922
00:42:10,373 --> 00:42:12,333
Speaker 4: Or are these people that have just been so knocked

923
00:42:12,413 --> 00:42:15,133
Speaker 4: down by life, They had such traumatic upbringings that that

924
00:42:15,493 --> 00:42:18,652
Speaker 4: love decided nobody can have any fun and they've somehow

925
00:42:18,733 --> 00:42:20,893
Speaker 4: managed to get themselves in a position where they shut

926
00:42:20,973 --> 00:42:21,493
Speaker 4: down everything.

927
00:42:21,573 --> 00:42:23,533
Speaker 2: Well, there's plenty of smart people that use their intelligence

928
00:42:23,573 --> 00:42:26,413
Speaker 2: in the wrong direction, don't they. Yeah. So, if you

929
00:42:26,693 --> 00:42:31,813
Speaker 2: are an anti alcohol activist who is enforcing rules that

930
00:42:31,893 --> 00:42:34,973
Speaker 2: are outside of what your average key we would think

931
00:42:35,053 --> 00:42:39,212
Speaker 2: were fair and balanced and inlign with society, and you're

932
00:42:39,253 --> 00:42:43,853
Speaker 2: doing it in a very intelligent and measured and brilliant way,

933
00:42:44,613 --> 00:42:47,133
Speaker 2: you're still directing it in the wrong direction, right.

934
00:42:47,173 --> 00:42:49,252
Speaker 3: Yeah, very true, nicely said.

935
00:42:49,333 --> 00:42:51,133
Speaker 2: And our powerful fire hose is no good if you

936
00:42:51,253 --> 00:42:53,773
Speaker 2: use it too, I don't know, spray little kids off bikes.

937
00:42:55,093 --> 00:42:57,213
Speaker 4: That's probably a better example. It's a good analogy. Oh,

938
00:42:57,253 --> 00:42:59,613
Speaker 4: eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number to call.

939
00:42:59,693 --> 00:43:01,973
Speaker 2: New Zealanders turned into a no first society and it's

940
00:43:02,013 --> 00:43:04,293
Speaker 2: infiltrated every part of everything we do and it's a

941
00:43:04,493 --> 00:43:08,613
Speaker 2: huge shame. Yeah, Kim, welcome to the show.

942
00:43:09,133 --> 00:43:10,853
Speaker 5: How are you good?

943
00:43:10,973 --> 00:43:11,212
Speaker 8: Thanks?

944
00:43:11,293 --> 00:43:14,493
Speaker 2: Jents, how are you brilliant? So you've been promoting a

945
00:43:14,533 --> 00:43:15,613
Speaker 2: new festival.

946
00:43:16,813 --> 00:43:17,413
Speaker 13: Yes, I have.

947
00:43:17,693 --> 00:43:20,333
Speaker 18: It's called Sonic Waves and it's down in Fogha Matar

948
00:43:20,733 --> 00:43:21,172
Speaker 18: at New.

949
00:43:21,133 --> 00:43:23,173
Speaker 2: Year's Nice Sonic Waves.

950
00:43:24,773 --> 00:43:27,733
Speaker 18: But we're a little bit different. We're are sixteen and

951
00:43:27,893 --> 00:43:30,573
Speaker 18: we're alcohol free, all.

952
00:43:30,573 --> 00:43:33,253
Speaker 2: Right, okay? And is this your first? Is this your

953
00:43:33,253 --> 00:43:35,093
Speaker 2: first time with it? Camera?

954
00:43:35,213 --> 00:43:35,333
Speaker 6: Is it?

955
00:43:35,413 --> 00:43:39,013
Speaker 2: Has it been on before for all of those years?

956
00:43:39,133 --> 00:43:43,893
Speaker 18: But getting to the getting through the council red tape

957
00:43:44,253 --> 00:43:48,172
Speaker 18: and the police is it is major. It's a long

958
00:43:48,293 --> 00:43:52,653
Speaker 18: long process, even for an alcohol free even nearly three years.

959
00:43:53,093 --> 00:43:55,453
Speaker 2: Wow, even with an alcohol free event.

960
00:43:56,893 --> 00:44:01,692
Speaker 18: Yeah, so the police trying to stipulate that I run

961
00:44:01,813 --> 00:44:07,573
Speaker 18: security like it's a licensed event, which is not so,

962
00:44:07,933 --> 00:44:12,573
Speaker 18: and I understand their concerns, but all these things just

963
00:44:12,733 --> 00:44:16,253
Speaker 18: take a lot of time and essentially cost a lot

964
00:44:16,293 --> 00:44:16,613
Speaker 18: of money.

965
00:44:16,973 --> 00:44:20,133
Speaker 2: Can you describe what the Can you describe the gig

966
00:44:20,213 --> 00:44:22,933
Speaker 2: for us, Kim? What kind of entertainment's there? What size

967
00:44:23,453 --> 00:44:25,413
Speaker 2: is it? Whereabouts exactly? What kind of venue?

968
00:44:26,773 --> 00:44:26,973
Speaker 5: Yeah?

969
00:44:27,133 --> 00:44:27,653
Speaker 6: I can do that.

970
00:44:29,493 --> 00:44:32,933
Speaker 18: So it's called Sonic Waves. It's at the Fine Rugby

971
00:44:33,013 --> 00:44:37,013
Speaker 18: Grounds two nights. It's on the thirtieth and thirty first

972
00:44:37,493 --> 00:44:43,333
Speaker 18: of December. So what we're what we're catering for, is

973
00:44:43,413 --> 00:44:46,893
Speaker 18: there a truckload of grams or use to go? There

974
00:44:47,813 --> 00:44:51,293
Speaker 18: was absolutely nothing to do and just roam around the streets.

975
00:44:52,693 --> 00:44:57,652
Speaker 18: So we've got a capacity for six thousand people. Wow,

976
00:44:58,053 --> 00:45:04,133
Speaker 18: and fully controlled and secure, fully fenced environment. One of

977
00:45:04,213 --> 00:45:07,573
Speaker 18: our headliners is Savage, We've got Sweet mixed kids were

978
00:45:07,693 --> 00:45:13,172
Speaker 18: just sign or artists from other countries. So what we're

979
00:45:13,213 --> 00:45:17,373
Speaker 18: doing is just providing some quality entertainment for the youth

980
00:45:18,133 --> 00:45:21,653
Speaker 18: to get off the street and come and be entertained

981
00:45:21,693 --> 00:45:23,453
Speaker 18: in a secure environment.

982
00:45:23,813 --> 00:45:26,493
Speaker 2: Good on you, Kim. That sounds like a fantastic idea.

983
00:45:26,773 --> 00:45:29,293
Speaker 2: Why did you decide to do it alcohol free? Because

984
00:45:29,293 --> 00:45:31,173
Speaker 2: you could have done it that it was you know,

985
00:45:31,253 --> 00:45:34,093
Speaker 2: alcohol was sold to adults, but young people could come

986
00:45:34,133 --> 00:45:36,693
Speaker 2: in and wouldn't have be allowed to alcohol. Why did

987
00:45:36,733 --> 00:45:38,093
Speaker 2: you decide to do it just alcohol free?

988
00:45:39,573 --> 00:45:42,573
Speaker 18: Yeah, that's a good question. And the reason is because

989
00:45:42,853 --> 00:45:47,213
Speaker 18: I believe the police would have hanged hamstrung me further

990
00:45:48,133 --> 00:45:50,772
Speaker 18: and we would probably still not be putting this event

991
00:45:50,893 --> 00:45:53,373
Speaker 18: on now, even after all this time.

992
00:45:53,653 --> 00:45:56,253
Speaker 4: Which sounds like, you know, it's a good strategy, but

993
00:45:56,293 --> 00:45:58,253
Speaker 4: a strategy you shouldn't have to implement. Why did it

994
00:45:58,333 --> 00:46:01,133
Speaker 4: take three years? What's the process you have to go

995
00:46:01,293 --> 00:46:02,613
Speaker 4: through and what does it take so long?

996
00:46:04,013 --> 00:46:09,093
Speaker 18: So by the time you apply for resources or you

997
00:46:09,213 --> 00:46:12,093
Speaker 18: have meetings around the resource consent, then you get a planner.

998
00:46:13,333 --> 00:46:16,613
Speaker 18: Then you've got to get all sorts of consultants and

999
00:46:16,813 --> 00:46:22,333
Speaker 18: engineers to comment and draw up documents about your event

1000
00:46:22,653 --> 00:46:26,733
Speaker 18: and how it's going to affect the environment, all sorts

1001
00:46:26,773 --> 00:46:30,053
Speaker 18: of things. And you know, our events is particularly small

1002
00:46:30,173 --> 00:46:32,613
Speaker 18: when you are looking at some of these other huge events.

1003
00:46:33,653 --> 00:46:37,653
Speaker 18: So unfortunately I missed you're talking to Brent Eckles before,

1004
00:46:37,773 --> 00:46:44,293
Speaker 18: but you know he's a very experienced campaigner and everything

1005
00:46:44,413 --> 00:46:50,692
Speaker 18: he says is true. Yeah, it's very very hard.

1006
00:46:51,133 --> 00:46:51,333
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1007
00:46:51,413 --> 00:46:53,333
Speaker 2: Have you yet to put together a traffic management plan

1008
00:46:53,813 --> 00:46:54,613
Speaker 2: as well?

1009
00:46:55,973 --> 00:46:59,693
Speaker 18: Yeah, full security plan, full event management plan, full traffic

1010
00:47:00,013 --> 00:47:03,293
Speaker 18: management plan, acoustic management plan, and the list just go

1011
00:47:03,493 --> 00:47:03,853
Speaker 18: on and on.

1012
00:47:04,493 --> 00:47:05,973
Speaker 2: And how much do you think it would have cost,

1013
00:47:06,053 --> 00:47:08,813
Speaker 2: you know, not just in time but in money to

1014
00:47:08,893 --> 00:47:10,133
Speaker 2: get to the point where you are where you can

1015
00:47:10,173 --> 00:47:11,133
Speaker 2: actually go ahead this year.

1016
00:47:13,453 --> 00:47:15,373
Speaker 18: I don't want to stay the actual number, but it's

1017
00:47:15,413 --> 00:47:17,692
Speaker 18: a lot of money, a lot, and it's a lot

1018
00:47:17,733 --> 00:47:18,373
Speaker 18: more than your think.

1019
00:47:18,653 --> 00:47:21,733
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, And how can people get tickets?

1020
00:47:23,733 --> 00:47:26,933
Speaker 18: You can go to Sonic Waves, dot co, dot m

1021
00:47:27,013 --> 00:47:31,773
Speaker 18: dead and the informations there and we are hopefully dropping

1022
00:47:31,893 --> 00:47:36,333
Speaker 18: the final lineup tomorrow afternoon.

1023
00:47:37,053 --> 00:47:40,293
Speaker 2: Do you think these new regulations that come through that I,

1024
00:47:40,613 --> 00:47:43,053
Speaker 2: you know, hopefully it gets worked out. And this is

1025
00:47:43,093 --> 00:47:44,573
Speaker 2: sort of what the're suggesting, that there would just be

1026
00:47:44,773 --> 00:47:47,973
Speaker 2: a blanket set of rules in a nationwide that you

1027
00:47:48,173 --> 00:47:51,573
Speaker 2: can sort of look at the look at the rule

1028
00:47:51,613 --> 00:47:53,493
Speaker 2: book and put it together to put together a festival.

1029
00:47:53,533 --> 00:47:54,413
Speaker 2: Do you think that would have helped you?

1030
00:47:56,333 --> 00:47:59,053
Speaker 18: I definitely think so that when I talk to other

1031
00:47:59,133 --> 00:48:02,293
Speaker 18: promoters and people in the industry, having all the separate

1032
00:48:02,773 --> 00:48:10,173
Speaker 18: liquor licensing agencies and the police. Basically you're letting it.

1033
00:48:10,493 --> 00:48:11,413
Speaker 19: As I heard you say.

1034
00:48:11,293 --> 00:48:17,293
Speaker 18: Before, people that are almost anti alcohol are governing how

1035
00:48:17,413 --> 00:48:20,573
Speaker 18: these events are run and how they're put on. Yeah,

1036
00:48:20,973 --> 00:48:24,253
Speaker 18: and when and when we're talking about people, you know,

1037
00:48:24,533 --> 00:48:28,373
Speaker 18: our age a fine vintage. Most of us are pretty

1038
00:48:28,373 --> 00:48:32,573
Speaker 18: well behaved. And if you look at the percentages people

1039
00:48:32,613 --> 00:48:35,853
Speaker 18: that go to these larger, large events and cause trouble

1040
00:48:35,933 --> 00:48:38,053
Speaker 18: or may get arrested or what have you, it's it's

1041
00:48:38,093 --> 00:48:42,093
Speaker 18: a very small minority. It is in the grand scheme

1042
00:48:42,133 --> 00:48:44,732
Speaker 18: of things, and if you want to try to stop those,

1043
00:48:44,893 --> 00:48:50,453
Speaker 18: you're also stopping all the revenue streams that come with events.

1044
00:48:50,653 --> 00:48:53,333
Speaker 18: And and that's just not for the promoter, but it's

1045
00:48:53,453 --> 00:48:57,413
Speaker 18: also for everyone in that area, everyone who works at

1046
00:48:57,453 --> 00:49:00,692
Speaker 18: those events. You know, there's a lot. It's just such

1047
00:49:00,693 --> 00:49:03,613
Speaker 18: a big knock on effect. And that's that's why if

1048
00:49:03,653 --> 00:49:07,853
Speaker 18: you look at Eden Park, how they're now, you know,

1049
00:49:08,013 --> 00:49:12,173
Speaker 18: trying to put more concerts on and bring more revenue

1050
00:49:12,293 --> 00:49:13,373
Speaker 18: into Auckland City.

1051
00:49:13,733 --> 00:49:16,213
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I live near Eding Park and it

1052
00:49:16,373 --> 00:49:19,493
Speaker 2: absolutely buzzes when there's when there's an event on at

1053
00:49:19,613 --> 00:49:22,413
Speaker 2: Eden Park. The restaurants around there. This particular restaurant that

1054
00:49:22,773 --> 00:49:25,133
Speaker 2: I know that's been struggling, that just packed all the

1055
00:49:25,173 --> 00:49:26,933
Speaker 2: bars right up through Kingsland and all the way out

1056
00:49:26,973 --> 00:49:31,893
Speaker 2: to Dominion Road and wider. Are just absolutely buzzing when

1057
00:49:31,893 --> 00:49:34,413
Speaker 2: there's a big event on and and it just brings

1058
00:49:34,533 --> 00:49:38,373
Speaker 2: the brings things alive and that needs to be celebrated

1059
00:49:38,893 --> 00:49:41,533
Speaker 2: as opposed to just zeroing in on the worst possible

1060
00:49:41,613 --> 00:49:43,893
Speaker 2: case scenario that you can imagine to shut down these

1061
00:49:43,973 --> 00:49:47,053
Speaker 2: things that are such a great social events and economic

1062
00:49:47,133 --> 00:49:49,813
Speaker 2: events and great for morale for a town as well.

1063
00:49:49,853 --> 00:49:52,853
Speaker 2: So come good on you for persevering and getting this

1064
00:49:53,213 --> 00:49:56,013
Speaker 2: Sonic Waves up and going, and I wish you all

1065
00:49:56,013 --> 00:49:56,493
Speaker 2: the best with that.

1066
00:49:57,813 --> 00:49:58,093
Speaker 18: Thank you.

1067
00:49:58,453 --> 00:50:00,533
Speaker 4: Yep, go well Kim. And you're getting a lot of

1068
00:50:00,533 --> 00:50:02,453
Speaker 4: support on the text machine as well. Great to hear

1069
00:50:02,573 --> 00:50:05,293
Speaker 4: something coming back to Funga Matah for the youth. Yiha

1070
00:50:05,453 --> 00:50:07,093
Speaker 4: looking forward to that concert. So if you want to

1071
00:50:07,333 --> 00:50:09,693
Speaker 4: go and support what can doing Sonic Waves dot co

1072
00:50:09,893 --> 00:50:12,893
Speaker 4: dot Nz good Man. But three years get listen to

1073
00:50:12,973 --> 00:50:16,053
Speaker 4: those reports he had to fill out our punishing.

1074
00:50:15,893 --> 00:50:19,173
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you'd want the police and the council

1075
00:50:19,453 --> 00:50:22,732
Speaker 2: to be making it as easy as possible. So come

1076
00:50:22,813 --> 00:50:24,893
Speaker 2: from the point of view that we want events to happen,

1077
00:50:24,933 --> 00:50:26,573
Speaker 2: and we want them to work, and we want them

1078
00:50:26,573 --> 00:50:28,693
Speaker 2: to be successful, and we want people to drink at

1079
00:50:28,733 --> 00:50:30,373
Speaker 2: them because that's what kiwis want to do and that

1080
00:50:30,453 --> 00:50:33,213
Speaker 2: should be the base standard that everyone comes to it,

1081
00:50:33,253 --> 00:50:35,013
Speaker 2: and then the councils should be there to go, Okay,

1082
00:50:35,293 --> 00:50:37,213
Speaker 2: how can we get this done. We'll do the paperwork

1083
00:50:37,253 --> 00:50:39,413
Speaker 2: for you because it is great. We'll get this done

1084
00:50:39,493 --> 00:50:40,933
Speaker 2: for you. The police will be like, oh, this is

1085
00:50:40,933 --> 00:50:43,293
Speaker 2: what we can do to help. That's the way it

1086
00:50:43,333 --> 00:50:45,013
Speaker 2: should be. Yeah, it shouldn't be a whole lot of

1087
00:50:45,053 --> 00:50:49,613
Speaker 2: roadblocks that someone has to basically sacrifice their sanity to

1088
00:50:50,213 --> 00:50:50,732
Speaker 2: get it done.

1089
00:50:50,853 --> 00:50:52,853
Speaker 4: Solving problems, not causing them. Oh eight one hundred and

1090
00:50:52,853 --> 00:50:55,373

00:51:06,413 --> 00:51:08,213
Speaker 2: Number, Sanny. I'm in my late fifties. We used to

1098
00:51:08,213 --> 00:51:10,172
Speaker 2: be able to take chili bins with food and drinks

1099
00:51:10,213 --> 00:51:13,613
Speaker 2: and to eating park for the cricket was as much trouble,

1203
00:55:37,733 --> 00:55:39,933

Speaker 3: Twenty nine past two.

1214
00:56:08,333 --> 00:56:11,253
Speaker 2: We're talking about crazy restrictions for events in our country

1215
00:56:11,613 --> 00:56:15,933
Speaker 2: because of associates. Justice Minister Nicole McKee announced reforms at

1216
00:56:16,293 --> 00:56:19,893
Speaker 2: the New Zealand Association's annual conference. They look pretty good.

1217
00:56:19,893 --> 00:56:23,373
Speaker 2: We'll see how they pan out. But there are places

1218
00:56:23,373 --> 00:56:25,733
Speaker 2: in the world that are much more sane when it

1219
00:56:25,813 --> 00:56:29,773
Speaker 2: comes to what you can do at grounds. Take Lords

1220
00:56:29,813 --> 00:56:32,293
Speaker 2: the Home of Cricket in London. So this is what

1221
00:56:32,333 --> 00:56:34,133
Speaker 2: you're allowed to bring into the ground. Okay, So if

1222
00:56:34,133 --> 00:56:35,853
Speaker 2: you're going along, you're allowed to bring one bottle of

1223
00:56:35,933 --> 00:56:39,133
Speaker 2: wine or champagne nice which is seven hundred and fifty

1224
00:56:39,173 --> 00:56:43,613
Speaker 2: meals yep. Or four cans or bottles of beer or

1225
00:56:43,733 --> 00:56:48,213
Speaker 2: cider max. Five hundred mili each yep. Four cans of

1226
00:56:48,253 --> 00:56:51,493
Speaker 2: pre mix to paradiefs well max. Three hundred and thirty mils.

1227
00:56:51,533 --> 00:56:55,373
Speaker 2: You're not allowed to bring in a bottle of gin vodka.

1228
00:56:55,453 --> 00:56:57,853
Speaker 4: Probably makes sense, but that is, I mean the other

1229
00:56:57,973 --> 00:57:00,133
Speaker 4: rules we should be getting behind. So one bottle of

1230
00:57:00,213 --> 00:57:03,493
Speaker 4: wine or shampas four tour boys five hundred mil. You

1231
00:57:03,533 --> 00:57:06,013
Speaker 4: can do a lot with that, and then four cans

1232
00:57:06,053 --> 00:57:06,933
Speaker 4: off what was the last one?

1233
00:57:07,493 --> 00:57:12,133

1239
00:57:30,733 --> 00:57:34,573
Speaker 13: And when you say that there is activists controlling the situation.

1240
00:57:34,853 --> 00:57:37,453
Speaker 13: So I can only talk for the Nelson situation because

Speaker 13: it render your liqual license or for that situation. One

1244
00:57:47,573 --> 00:57:53,173
Speaker 13: is the counsel, one is the police, and one is

1245
00:57:53,253 --> 00:57:57,973
Speaker 13: the health depart Okay, And you'll remember, not only did

1246
00:57:58,173 --> 00:58:02,573
Speaker 13: Nelson have that problem or with that event, they also

1247
00:58:02,733 --> 00:58:06,693
Speaker 13: decided that Nelson City Council decided to ban liquor advertising

1248
00:58:06,773 --> 00:58:08,613
Speaker 13: at sex and Able and then they were that they

1249
00:58:08,613 --> 00:58:11,733
Speaker 13: wouldn't give any more cricket games, and there was a

1250
00:58:11,813 --> 00:58:17,053
Speaker 13: high doing and throwing and that that changed. The person

1251
00:58:17,133 --> 00:58:20,013
Speaker 13: at the health department in Nelson's is a woman who

1252
00:58:20,053 --> 00:58:27,013
Speaker 13: won't be named. She says she doesn't drink. So when

1253
00:58:27,053 --> 00:58:31,053
Speaker 13: you get a person who doesn't think any alcohol and then.

1254
00:58:31,093 --> 00:58:33,133
Speaker 2: They should be doing the job, they shouldn't be doing

1255
00:58:33,133 --> 00:58:34,813
Speaker 2: the job. The person that's doing that job should be

1256
00:58:35,093 --> 00:58:38,813
Speaker 2: aligned with what most Kiwis are thinking in life.

1257
00:58:40,053 --> 00:58:43,573
Speaker 13: Exactly my point that they're not suitable for the position.

1258
00:58:43,933 --> 00:58:49,333
Speaker 13: Because they can't take a neutral position on it, all right,

1259
00:58:49,613 --> 00:58:52,773
Speaker 13: And that is the situation. And also then you go

1260
00:58:53,653 --> 00:58:56,533
Speaker 13: the police are very pragmatic here. They look at it

1261
00:58:56,573 --> 00:58:58,653
Speaker 13: from a point of view. You know, if you're a

1262
00:58:58,773 --> 00:59:00,693
Speaker 13: restaurant or a bar, they look at it with us.

1263
00:59:00,693 --> 00:59:01,973
Speaker 13: This place got a lot of trouble.

1264
00:59:02,013 --> 00:59:03,133
Speaker 11: There are lots of fire, so.

1265
00:59:03,213 --> 00:59:06,533
Speaker 13: Many people get thrown out, et cetera, et cetera. We

1266
00:59:06,653 --> 00:59:09,453
Speaker 13: called anyone serving anyone drunk. They just look at it

1267
00:59:09,493 --> 00:59:14,453
Speaker 13: from the statistics type of thing. But you often find

1268
00:59:14,573 --> 00:59:19,653
Speaker 13: within the councils themselves, the bureaucrats can be like plumbing, unparking,

1269
00:59:19,773 --> 00:59:23,653
Speaker 13: meat a wardens, and all of them need to do

1270
00:59:23,813 --> 00:59:26,813
Speaker 13: custom service training. The friendliest people in the council, and

1271
00:59:26,893 --> 00:59:29,133
Speaker 13: I'm sure you agree that people that answer the phones.

1272
00:59:29,893 --> 00:59:32,293
Speaker 13: As soon as you start peeling back the onion skin

1273
00:59:32,413 --> 00:59:37,893
Speaker 13: and going down to resource consents or water or wherever,

1274
00:59:38,693 --> 00:59:41,813
Speaker 13: it appears that none of them have actually had any

1275
00:59:41,933 --> 00:59:45,613
Speaker 13: customer service training. Just like you said before, how can

1276
00:59:45,693 --> 00:59:47,493
Speaker 13: we make this work? What do we need to do

1277
00:59:47,613 --> 00:59:49,533
Speaker 13: to make this work? You know, how can we get

1278
00:59:49,573 --> 00:59:53,373
Speaker 13: this thing happening? That mindset does not exist. But then

1279
00:59:53,773 --> 00:59:55,733
Speaker 13: I would say most councils in New Zealand.

1280
00:59:55,853 --> 00:59:58,173
Speaker 4: There's a problem there with those licensing committees, isn't it.

1281
00:59:58,213 --> 01:00:00,253
Speaker 4: I mean, it seems to me they're appointed by the council.

1282
01:00:00,333 --> 01:00:02,173
Speaker 4: It should be open to vote from the public, so

1283
01:00:02,253 --> 01:00:05,333
Speaker 4: you put people in there who actually understand about events

1284
01:00:05,373 --> 01:00:07,973
Speaker 4: and festivals and having fun and what the community needs.

1285
01:00:08,373 --> 01:00:10,653
Speaker 4: Said of some numpties who are bored in retirement and

1286
01:00:10,693 --> 01:00:12,093
Speaker 4: they get voted in by the council.

1287
01:00:12,093 --> 01:00:15,493
Speaker 2: Being the president of an AMP committee the last few years,

1288
01:00:15,613 --> 01:00:18,293
Speaker 2: things are just ridiculous. The local council and Cannibury wanted

1289
01:00:18,333 --> 01:00:21,253
Speaker 2: to charge one thousand dollars per bouncy castle to inspect

1290
01:00:21,253 --> 01:00:23,893
Speaker 2: them before the AMP show. Also, obtaining a lock of

1291
01:00:23,973 --> 01:00:27,573
Speaker 2: license for six hours is nearly a waste of time.

1292
01:00:28,173 --> 01:00:33,733
Speaker 2: Now yeah, yeah, unreal, Yeah, exactly what Rob said. The councils,

1293
01:00:34,373 --> 01:00:38,973
Speaker 2: the police, everyone involved should be looking to do everything

1294
01:00:39,013 --> 01:00:42,853
Speaker 2: they can to make festivals happen, make them as easy

1295
01:00:42,893 --> 01:00:45,933
Speaker 2: as possible. Should They should have resources to put them

1296
01:00:45,933 --> 01:00:49,213
Speaker 2: ahead and put them make sure they go ahead and

1297
01:00:50,013 --> 01:00:52,573
Speaker 2: it just roll out the red carpet to make them happen,

1298
01:00:52,693 --> 01:00:54,853
Speaker 2: rather than putting up roadbox to make it difficult. Because

1299
01:00:54,933 --> 01:00:56,693
Speaker 2: events so good for the community and so good for the.

1300
01:00:56,733 --> 01:01:00,413
Speaker 4: Society, nicely said, a great discussion and it seems like

1301
01:01:00,493 --> 01:01:02,773
Speaker 4: a step in the right direction from the government. But

1302
01:01:02,933 --> 01:01:04,973
Speaker 4: maybe more to come on that. So thank you very

1303
01:01:05,053 --> 01:01:06,773
Speaker 4: much to everyone who called in text on that one.

1304
01:01:07,093 --> 01:01:09,573
Speaker 4: Coming up after the head lines, Let's have a chat

1305
01:01:09,613 --> 01:01:13,333
Speaker 4: about gray areas of the road code. Big story on

1306
01:01:13,653 --> 01:01:15,893
Speaker 4: what happens if you're driving down the street there's park

1307
01:01:15,973 --> 01:01:18,533
Speaker 4: cars on either side, you're in one direction, somebody else

1308
01:01:18,653 --> 01:01:20,533
Speaker 4: is in the other direction. You had it at the

1309
01:01:20,573 --> 01:01:23,493
Speaker 4: same time. Who gives way? But it's not the only

1310
01:01:23,613 --> 01:01:25,613
Speaker 4: gray area of the road code. So we can hear

1311
01:01:25,613 --> 01:01:28,333
Speaker 4: from you on eight hundred and eighty ten eighty twenty

1312
01:01:28,373 --> 01:01:29,013
Speaker 4: six to three.

1313
01:01:31,933 --> 01:01:35,293
Speaker 14: You talk said the headlines with blue bubble taxis, it's

1314
01:01:35,373 --> 01:01:38,973
Speaker 14: no trouble with a blue bubble. Details have been revealed

1315
01:01:39,013 --> 01:01:44,133
Speaker 14: from the initial investigation into former Deputy Police Commissioner Jevin mcskimming.

1316
01:01:44,653 --> 01:01:48,413
Speaker 14: It's been revealed he was suspended before Christmas after an

1317
01:01:48,453 --> 01:01:53,973
Speaker 14: allegation of sexual misconduct by a former female police employee. However,

1318
01:01:54,173 --> 01:01:57,533
Speaker 14: police say there is insufficient evidence to prosecute the fifty

1319
01:01:57,613 --> 01:02:01,613
Speaker 14: two year old. Thousands of nurses are continuing pushback on

1320
01:02:01,813 --> 01:02:06,053
Speaker 14: unsafe staffing levels at hospitals around the country, walking off

1321
01:02:06,133 --> 01:02:09,693
Speaker 14: the job for a second day. The Green Energy Project

1322
01:02:09,853 --> 01:02:13,253
Speaker 14: has been announced to explore the geothermal power of the

1323
01:02:13,413 --> 01:02:17,893
Speaker 14: Central Coport Volcanic Zone. Resources Minister Shane Jones says it

1324
01:02:18,013 --> 01:02:22,733
Speaker 14: has potential to improve New Zealand's energy security. Welkan company

1325
01:02:22,853 --> 01:02:26,573
Speaker 14: Kyland's scaffolding has been ordered to pay eight thousand, five

1326
01:02:26,773 --> 01:02:31,413
Speaker 14: hundred dollars in reparations after scaffolding collapsed onto a busy

1327
01:02:31,573 --> 01:02:35,453
Speaker 14: road last year. A person is seriously injured following a

1328
01:02:35,573 --> 01:02:38,693
Speaker 14: two vehicle crash south off Dunedin at about one point

1329
01:02:38,693 --> 01:02:42,853
Speaker 14: thirty this afternoon. State Highway One between Law and Riverside

1330

Speaker 14: Roads is expected to be closed for several hours. Big profits,

1331
01:02:47,253 --> 01:02:50,133
Speaker 14: minimal tax. New report on how to make Google and

1332
01:02:50,293 --> 01:02:53,653
Speaker 14: Facebook pay fair share of tax. You can read more

1333
01:02:53,733 --> 01:02:56,773
Speaker 14: at NZ Herald Premium. Now back to Matt and Tyler.

1334
01:02:56,933 --> 01:02:57,853
Speaker 3: Thank you very much.

1335
01:02:58,013 --> 01:02:58,453
Speaker 2: Susie.

1336
01:02:58,813 --> 01:03:01,173
Speaker 3: So picture this, and many of us have faced this.

1337
01:03:01,293 --> 01:03:03,493
Speaker 4: You're driving up a suburban street when the road narrows,

1338
01:03:03,533 --> 01:03:06,493
Speaker 4: with cars parked on both sides, leaving just enough space

1339
01:03:06,813 --> 01:03:08,493
Speaker 4: for one vehicle to pass through at a time. Up

1340
01:03:08,573 --> 01:03:10,373
Speaker 4: her head, you can see another driver he's coming from

1341
01:03:10,413 --> 01:03:12,933
Speaker 4: the opposite direction, or she and you both slow down

1342
01:03:13,093 --> 01:03:15,573
Speaker 4: unsure of who should move first. There's no sign, there's

1343
01:03:15,613 --> 01:03:19,333
Speaker 4: no lane markings and no obvious rule, so who gives way?

1344
01:03:19,613 --> 01:03:22,773
Speaker 4: Great story on the Herald, and with the number of

1345
01:03:23,893 --> 01:03:26,293
Speaker 4: townhouses going up, I think it is a situation. Many

1346
01:03:26,373 --> 01:03:29,013
Speaker 4: around the country have faced narrow streets. You both come

1347
01:03:29,093 --> 01:03:33,693
Speaker 4: up into that situation and courtesy sometimes goes out the window.

1348
01:03:34,293 --> 01:03:37,213
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an interesting one, isn't it, Because there's some people.

1349
01:03:37,333 --> 01:03:39,653
Speaker 2: I mean, the side topic on this is people when

1350
01:03:39,653 --> 01:03:41,853
Speaker 2: you let them through who don't wave say thank you.

1351
01:03:42,053 --> 01:03:42,373
Speaker 3: Hate that.

1352
01:03:42,733 --> 01:03:44,733
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I've had to grow up as a

1353
01:03:44,813 --> 01:03:47,173
Speaker 2: human and now I don't get angry about it, but

1354
01:03:47,253 --> 01:03:49,453
Speaker 2: used annoy me so much. You let people through, or

1355
01:03:49,493 --> 01:03:51,253
Speaker 2: you let one person through and the person just behind

1356
01:03:51,293 --> 01:03:53,573
Speaker 2: them accelerates and takes the piss bad piece. The other

1357
01:03:53,653 --> 01:03:56,413
Speaker 2: thing is you don't know how many people the person

1358
01:03:56,453 --> 01:03:57,973
Speaker 2: has let through before you come up to them. So

1359
01:03:58,053 --> 01:04:00,413
Speaker 2: they might have on a long street, and there's a

1360
01:04:00,453 --> 01:04:02,173
Speaker 2: bunch of these in Auckland, long narrow streets, so that

1361
01:04:02,253 --> 01:04:03,853
Speaker 2: someone might have let two people in on their way

1362
01:04:03,893 --> 01:04:05,733
Speaker 2: down this road. Yeah, by the time they get to you,

1363
01:04:05,813 --> 01:04:07,693
Speaker 2: they're like, na, nah, you're the third, but you don't

1364
01:04:07,733 --> 01:04:11,053
Speaker 2: know that you get annoyed at them. So it's a

1365
01:04:11,133 --> 01:04:16,013
Speaker 2: tough one because it's you know, it's easy on a

1366
01:04:16,933 --> 01:04:19,453
Speaker 2: slope street because you know that if you're coming down,

1367
01:04:19,493 --> 01:04:20,373
Speaker 2: you give way to coming up.

1368
01:04:20,573 --> 01:04:23,493
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, because I always think it is quite often

1369
01:04:23,573 --> 01:04:25,173
Speaker 4: a lot. I have this almost every day when I

1370
01:04:25,253 --> 01:04:27,733
Speaker 4: go home. There's one street in particular and there's cars

1371
01:04:27,773 --> 01:04:30,413
Speaker 4: parked on both sides. But if there is a gap

1372
01:04:30,573 --> 01:04:32,893
Speaker 4: on my side or the other driver's side, so you

1373
01:04:32,973 --> 01:04:35,013
Speaker 4: get the cars parked up, but there's a little gap there.

1374
01:04:35,413 --> 01:04:37,853
Speaker 4: If that gap is on their side, they need to

1375
01:04:37,893 --> 01:04:39,893
Speaker 4: give away to me because they can just swoop in

1376
01:04:40,013 --> 01:04:42,293
Speaker 4: there and I can go past. But if the gap

1377
01:04:42,413 --> 01:04:44,093
Speaker 4: is on my side, then I give way to them.

1378
01:04:44,213 --> 01:04:47,093
Speaker 4: And it's also distance. If they hit that point before

1379
01:04:47,173 --> 01:04:49,653
Speaker 4: I do, then I'll get to give way. I pull

1380
01:04:49,973 --> 01:04:51,933
Speaker 4: to the side, so I'm not going to start gunning

1381
01:04:51,973 --> 01:04:53,413
Speaker 4: and up to try and beat them to that point.

1382
01:04:53,733 --> 01:04:55,453
Speaker 4: I just do what I think is the right thing.

1383
01:04:55,573 --> 01:04:57,973
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's right. Something that speeds up so they

1384
01:04:58,333 --> 01:04:59,053
Speaker 2: get the right of way.

1385
01:04:59,293 --> 01:05:01,133
Speaker 4: And that has happened to me that I've pulled over

1386
01:05:01,293 --> 01:05:03,213
Speaker 4: and let a whole bunch of cars come through, and

1387
01:05:03,293 --> 01:05:06,253
Speaker 4: then I see this nothing come screaming down to get

1388
01:05:06,293 --> 01:05:06,893
Speaker 4: through as well.

1389
01:05:07,493 --> 01:05:09,533
Speaker 3: And on occasion, and I'm not proud of myself when

1390
01:05:09,573 --> 01:05:11,333
Speaker 3: I do this, But then when that person comes in,

1391
01:05:11,373 --> 01:05:13,013
Speaker 3: I'll just swing out into the middle of the road

1392
01:05:13,093 --> 01:05:15,653
Speaker 3: say excuse me, excuse me, mate, you're not coming through.

1393
01:05:15,973 --> 01:05:17,613
Speaker 2: When did you start using the word numpty?

1394
01:05:18,333 --> 01:05:18,653
Speaker 6: I don't know.

1395
01:05:18,773 --> 01:05:20,053
Speaker 3: I've thought out quite a lot today.

1396
01:05:20,453 --> 01:05:23,533
Speaker 2: I've got a lot. This numpty. It's very it's very mild.

1397
01:05:23,773 --> 01:05:27,413
Speaker 3: It's a very nid Flanders kind of kind of slang,

1398
01:05:27,573 --> 01:05:27,853
Speaker 3: isn't it.

1399
01:05:28,173 --> 01:05:30,453
Speaker 2: It's a very mild insult. Of course, it's quite I

1400
01:05:30,653 --> 01:05:30,813
Speaker 2: like it.

1401
01:05:31,173 --> 01:05:33,013
Speaker 3: You like it, You'll keep using it. I'll throw a

1402
01:05:33,093 --> 01:05:34,013
Speaker 3: muppet from time to time.

1403
01:05:34,333 --> 01:05:36,893
Speaker 2: It's old school. It's not too abusive. It's like this

1404
01:05:37,093 --> 01:05:40,773
Speaker 2: numpty that's naughty. Yeah you, I mean, you could use

1405
01:05:40,853 --> 01:05:42,373
Speaker 2: much worse words for that.

1406
01:05:42,573 --> 01:05:43,933
Speaker 3: Do you like numpty nine two nine?

1407
01:05:43,933 --> 01:05:46,373
Speaker 2: Too? But there are a lot of gray areas, you know,

1408
01:05:46,493 --> 01:05:48,853
Speaker 2: as I was saying before when we were talking about

1409
01:05:48,893 --> 01:05:52,053
Speaker 2: doing this subject, there are things in the road code

1410
01:05:52,093 --> 01:05:54,813
Speaker 2: that people don't know, yes, right, And then there are

1411
01:05:55,333 --> 01:05:57,933
Speaker 2: things that aren't in the road code. There's these gray

1412
01:05:58,053 --> 01:06:01,853
Speaker 2: areas of driving that you come across regularly, YEA and so,

1413
01:06:02,693 --> 01:06:04,333
Speaker 2: And there's some things in the road code that that

1414
01:06:04,613 --> 01:06:06,813
Speaker 2: just aren't widely known by people. I mean, you read

1415
01:06:06,813 --> 01:06:08,413
Speaker 2: the rod cone when you first pass your license, and

1416
01:06:08,493 --> 01:06:10,773
Speaker 2: you never see it again until maybe you're testing your

1417
01:06:10,813 --> 01:06:12,853
Speaker 2: kid YEA, get their driver's license hundred percent.

1418
01:06:13,013 --> 01:06:14,533
Speaker 3: So what are they those gray areas?

1419
01:06:14,653 --> 01:06:16,493
Speaker 2: So e one hundred and eighty ten eighty, what's your

1420
01:06:16,533 --> 01:06:19,253
Speaker 2: strategy on those streets where they're two narrow and you

1421
01:06:19,333 --> 01:06:20,933
Speaker 2: have to give away for someone? Or when do you

1422
01:06:21,013 --> 01:06:26,053
Speaker 2: give away? And also what are these gray areas of driving? Yeah,

1423
01:06:26,293 --> 01:06:28,173
Speaker 2: you know, gray areas of road rules.

1424
01:06:28,253 --> 01:06:30,173
Speaker 4: The phones have let up and the texts are coming

1425
01:06:30,213 --> 01:06:31,973
Speaker 4: through thick and fast. Oh eight hundred and eighty ten

1426
01:06:32,013 --> 01:06:35,093
Speaker 4: eighties number call beg very shortly. It is eighteen to three.

1427
01:06:35,373 --> 01:06:36,133
Speaker 5: Yeah, numberties.

1428
01:06:37,293 --> 01:06:40,653
Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues, the big trends, and

1429
01:06:41,013 --> 01:06:41,973
Speaker 1: everything in between.

1430
01:06:42,213 --> 01:06:45,093
Speaker 5: Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons used talks.

1431
01:06:45,133 --> 01:06:46,053
Speaker 2: That'd be afternoon.

1432
01:06:46,093 --> 01:06:48,933
Speaker 4: We're talking about gray areas of the road code or

1433
01:06:49,013 --> 01:06:51,093
Speaker 4: perhaps laws that are misunderstood.

1434
01:06:51,093 --> 01:06:52,893
Speaker 2: Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number to

1435
01:06:52,933 --> 01:06:55,733
Speaker 2: call regarding approaching a pedestrian cross and what you said

1436
01:06:55,773 --> 01:06:57,853
Speaker 2: about the diamond is completely wrong. You need to read

1437
01:06:57,893 --> 01:06:59,933
Speaker 2: the road code and correct your listeners before you cause

1438
01:06:59,973 --> 01:07:03,373
Speaker 2: a death. That is the most hysterical text we've ever got. Traumatic.

1439
01:07:03,693 --> 01:07:07,973
Speaker 2: I'll read it again regarding approaching you're in crossing. What

1440
01:07:08,053 --> 01:07:10,493
Speaker 2: you see about the diamond, it's can't plenty wrong. You

1441
01:07:10,613 --> 01:07:12,973
Speaker 2: need to read the road going and correct gulists before

1442
01:07:13,013 --> 01:07:15,813
Speaker 2: your cause it. They have a cup of tea love.

1443
01:07:16,013 --> 01:07:16,213
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1444
01:07:16,373 --> 01:07:19,733
Speaker 2: Anyway, that what that was was someone was saying, whereas

1445
01:07:19,973 --> 01:07:22,053
Speaker 2: well were It wasn't actually us that was saying. We

1446
01:07:22,173 --> 01:07:24,253
Speaker 2: read it out, well, we'll look it up. Someone was

1447
01:07:24,253 --> 01:07:26,533
Speaker 2: saying that if you can't believe this person sent that

1448
01:07:26,653 --> 01:07:29,773
Speaker 2: text that what the person was saying that is, if

1449
01:07:29,853 --> 01:07:34,293
Speaker 2: you have passed the diamond before the pedestrian crossing, then

1450
01:07:34,493 --> 01:07:36,493
Speaker 2: the car has right of way. Yes, but what I

1451
01:07:36,613 --> 01:07:40,293
Speaker 2: said was never enforced the right of way on a pedestrian. Yeah,

1452
01:07:40,453 --> 01:07:42,813
Speaker 2: because you know, even if you do, they have the

1453
01:07:42,933 --> 01:07:44,893
Speaker 2: right of the way. If you're on the pedestrian crossing,

1454
01:07:45,213 --> 01:07:46,213
Speaker 2: you let them go across.

1455
01:07:46,693 --> 01:07:46,853
Speaker 6: You know.

1456
01:07:47,733 --> 01:07:50,893
Speaker 2: Always for me, if a pedestrian is either waiting at

1457
01:07:50,893 --> 01:07:53,173
Speaker 2: the pedestrian crossing or has their foot on the pedestrian crossing,

1458
01:07:53,933 --> 01:07:55,213
Speaker 2: then the pedestrian has the right of way.

1459
01:07:55,253 --> 01:07:56,093
Speaker 3: Ye just let them through.

1460
01:07:56,293 --> 01:07:56,813
Speaker 2: Let them through.

1461
01:07:56,933 --> 01:08:02,853
Speaker 4: You don't want I had a pedestrian before. Someone is

1462
01:08:02,893 --> 01:08:05,133
Speaker 4: the text number. We're getting plenty coming through.

1463
01:08:05,253 --> 01:08:07,533
Speaker 2: Hey guys, my parent partner hates the no way a

1464
01:08:07,693 --> 01:08:10,133
Speaker 2: holes often flips the bird as they pass. It's now

1465
01:08:10,173 --> 01:08:13,053
Speaker 2: affecting me a street as a shocker for part cars narrowing.

1466
01:08:13,653 --> 01:08:16,333
Speaker 2: That's from and Nicky Scott, welcome to the show.

1467
01:08:17,492 --> 01:08:18,253
Speaker 7: Gooday guys.

1468
01:08:19,253 --> 01:08:22,893
Speaker 21: Yeah, the narrow roads are being a truck driver and

1469
01:08:23,133 --> 01:08:26,253
Speaker 21: living in and around Wellington and now in christ Church.

1470
01:08:28,333 --> 01:08:30,732
Speaker 21: Just simple easy answer as if there's space to pull

1471
01:08:30,772 --> 01:08:33,133
Speaker 21: off to the side and I makest out the park cars,

1472
01:08:33,213 --> 01:08:35,652
Speaker 21: do so and just use the give way rull. Otherwise

1473
01:08:35,772 --> 01:08:38,852
Speaker 21: you go one car at a time and use that

1474
01:08:38,973 --> 01:08:41,133
Speaker 21: give way rull, you know, give way to your right.

1475
01:08:42,173 --> 01:08:46,452
Speaker 21: A simple easy answer for that one. And like I'm

1476
01:08:46,612 --> 01:08:49,333
Speaker 21: just in the process of going for my truck and

1477
01:08:49,412 --> 01:08:53,452
Speaker 21: trailer license at the moment, I'm going through the fourth

1478
01:08:54,053 --> 01:08:57,973
Speaker 21: time through the road code. Okay, the specialty Christians. But

1479
01:08:58,133 --> 01:09:01,653
Speaker 21: one of the previous questions I came up against online

1480
01:09:02,532 --> 01:09:02,972
Speaker 21: use today.

1481
01:09:02,973 --> 01:09:03,732
Speaker 7: I think it was.

1482
01:09:05,732 --> 01:09:07,652
Speaker 21: Around if there was money owing on.

1483
01:09:07,692 --> 01:09:09,333
Speaker 18: A vehicle, what should you do?

1484
01:09:10,093 --> 01:09:10,892
Speaker 8: It's nothing to.

1485
01:09:11,013 --> 01:09:12,213
Speaker 21: Do with the road code.

1486
01:09:13,133 --> 01:09:14,972
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's in the road code.

1487
01:09:16,293 --> 01:09:18,492
Speaker 21: There was a question that I got asked as a

1488
01:09:18,572 --> 01:09:22,652
Speaker 21: Fraigus question for a road a learner's license roadmade.

1489
01:09:23,532 --> 01:09:25,732
Speaker 2: That's a waste of time. Yeah, that's that's a totally

1490
01:09:25,732 --> 01:09:26,293
Speaker 2: different issue.

1491
01:09:29,293 --> 01:09:32,492
Speaker 21: Yeah, and then you're just talking about pedestrian crossings. One

1492
01:09:32,532 --> 01:09:36,213
Speaker 21: of the questions that I had today was, even though

1493
01:09:36,253 --> 01:09:39,492
Speaker 21: a pedestrian cross is crossing out a red light, should

1494
01:09:39,532 --> 01:09:40,452
Speaker 21: you give way to them?

1495
01:09:40,652 --> 01:09:41,173
Speaker 6: Yes or no?

1496
01:09:41,492 --> 01:09:47,293
Speaker 21: And the answer is yes, the red light, the walking

1497
01:09:47,412 --> 01:09:51,133
Speaker 21: men light is showing and that's crossed started crossing the road.

1498
01:09:51,652 --> 01:09:54,612
Speaker 21: The correct answer for that, according to the online testing

1499
01:09:54,652 --> 01:09:58,333
Speaker 21: that I'm doing using the road code, is yes, you

1500
01:09:58,372 --> 01:09:59,492
Speaker 21: should stop and give way.

1501
01:09:59,692 --> 01:10:01,972
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well that kind of makes sense though, doesn't it, Scott,

1502
01:10:02,133 --> 01:10:09,972
Speaker 2: because you know, and soft whereas your truck is hard.

1503
01:10:10,692 --> 01:10:12,532
Speaker 2: But I mean, but that that red fleshing right, is

1504
01:10:13,093 --> 01:10:15,372
Speaker 2: just telling pedestrian get across quickly.

1505
01:10:17,133 --> 01:10:19,012
Speaker 21: Technically of saying don't cross the road.

1506
01:10:19,133 --> 01:10:23,452
Speaker 2: So you know, you're not talking about the flashing red,

1507
01:10:23,492 --> 01:10:26,012
Speaker 2: You're talking about a solid red. Yeah.

1508
01:10:26,173 --> 01:10:30,133
Speaker 21: So the question was when when the red man is solid, yeah,

1509
01:10:30,933 --> 01:10:33,333
Speaker 21: read light are solid for the pedestrian at the crossing

1510
01:10:33,452 --> 01:10:36,853
Speaker 21: and crossing the road, should you give way to the pedestrian?

1511
01:10:37,253 --> 01:10:38,812
Speaker 18: And the answer is his of course.

1512
01:10:38,652 --> 01:10:41,053
Speaker 2: Yeah, well there are foolish There are a foolish pedestrian,

1513
01:10:41,173 --> 01:10:45,372
Speaker 2: but they get right away by virtue of always coming

1514
01:10:45,452 --> 01:10:47,253
Speaker 2: out second on the.

1515
01:10:48,053 --> 01:10:52,293
Speaker 21: But also also in my driving experience there is probably

1516
01:10:52,412 --> 01:10:54,572
Speaker 21: ninety nine percent of New Zealanders should read the road

1517
01:10:54,612 --> 01:10:58,932
Speaker 21: code every week because nobody ever and nobody ever indicates anymore.

1518
01:10:59,572 --> 01:11:02,732
Speaker 21: And on emerging lane coming off like the on ramps

1519
01:11:02,812 --> 01:11:05,572
Speaker 21: or off ramps off the motorway, nobody these days, no

1520
01:11:05,652 --> 01:11:07,412
Speaker 21: how knows how to drive all the way.

1521
01:11:07,293 --> 01:11:08,293
Speaker 22: To the end and merge.

1522
01:11:08,372 --> 01:11:10,933
Speaker 21: Then at the end of the moving lane emerged like

1523
01:11:10,973 --> 01:11:13,012
Speaker 21: a zip kid. So we're the end of the barrier.

1524
01:11:13,133 --> 01:11:14,372
Speaker 21: Isn't shoot straight across?

1525
01:11:14,692 --> 01:11:18,333
Speaker 2: Yeah? Absolutely that that's a bigginning. Now you're driving around

1526
01:11:18,333 --> 01:11:19,732
Speaker 2: in a truck, so you'd be able to see into

1527
01:11:19,732 --> 01:11:21,893
Speaker 2: people's cars quite a light. I mean this morning, I

1528
01:11:21,973 --> 01:11:23,692
Speaker 2: was talking about it before I saw someone that was

1529
01:11:23,732 --> 01:11:27,412
Speaker 2: pulling out of a gym car park across the pavement

1530
01:11:27,492 --> 01:11:30,372
Speaker 2: onto the road nearly hit my dog. On her phone.

1531
01:11:30,572 --> 01:11:32,772
Speaker 2: She was actually staring down at her phone as she

1532
01:11:32,933 --> 01:11:35,333
Speaker 2: drove onto a street. So when you're driving around in

1533
01:11:35,372 --> 01:11:38,133
Speaker 2: your truck, you'd see do you see more and more

1534
01:11:38,133 --> 01:11:40,852
Speaker 2: people just actually driving around along looking at their phones.

1535
01:11:42,013 --> 01:11:42,213
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1536
01:11:42,293 --> 01:11:43,492
Speaker 18: You see people on their phones.

1537
01:11:43,572 --> 01:11:46,093
Speaker 21: You see people putting on makeup, you see people doing

1538
01:11:46,133 --> 01:11:46,812
Speaker 21: all sorts of weird.

1539
01:11:46,732 --> 01:11:47,452
Speaker 18: In one of the things.

1540
01:11:47,652 --> 01:11:51,652
Speaker 21: Yeah, I mean yeah, you can see intimate eggs and

1541
01:11:51,812 --> 01:11:55,333
Speaker 21: certain cities as well. You just see the weird and

1542
01:11:55,412 --> 01:11:56,612
Speaker 21: wonderful when you're in a truck.

1543
01:11:57,013 --> 01:12:00,812
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's concerning because I like to drive around

1544
01:12:00,812 --> 01:12:02,572
Speaker 2: with no pants on, so I didn't know that people

1545
01:12:02,572 --> 01:12:03,013
Speaker 2: could see me.

1546
01:12:03,133 --> 01:12:05,852
Speaker 3: Scott's been looking at you your business all this time, mate.

1547
01:12:07,133 --> 01:12:10,972
Speaker 2: Yeah, Scott, stay safe out there, Scott.

1548
01:12:11,053 --> 01:12:11,732
Speaker 3: Yeah, very good.

1549
01:12:11,812 --> 01:12:13,213
Speaker 4: Hey, without a word of a lie. I saw this

1550
01:12:13,293 --> 01:12:15,253
Speaker 4: the other day on the motorway, just you're talking about

1551
01:12:15,253 --> 01:12:18,133
Speaker 4: the phone, and it was traffic. You know, traffic was

1552
01:12:18,133 --> 01:12:20,333
Speaker 4: pretty slow, so not much going on. But I saw

1553
01:12:20,412 --> 01:12:22,772
Speaker 4: someone watching an episode of Friends on their phone. They

1554
01:12:22,853 --> 01:12:25,372
Speaker 4: just had the we phone on the dashboard and we're

1555
01:12:25,372 --> 01:12:28,612
Speaker 4: watching TV, and I thought, ah, you are kidding me.

1556
01:12:29,093 --> 01:12:30,852
Speaker 4: So they going to hit one eye on the episode

1557
01:12:30,893 --> 01:12:32,412
Speaker 4: of Friends. And one A on the road and I

1558
01:12:32,492 --> 01:12:34,772
Speaker 4: thought this is too much.

1559
01:12:34,853 --> 01:12:38,652
Speaker 2: Yeah, episode of Friends, will We'll wait? The show ended

1560
01:12:38,692 --> 01:12:41,333
Speaker 2: in the nineties. Exactly, you can. I'm pretty sure it

1561
01:12:41,412 --> 01:12:43,133
Speaker 2: into the nineties. You can just watch that when you get.

1562
01:12:43,053 --> 01:12:44,852
Speaker 3: Home media reruns to go to later on.

1563
01:12:45,093 --> 01:12:48,172
Speaker 2: It's not emergency information about an alien invasion?

1564
01:12:48,732 --> 01:12:50,412
Speaker 4: Oh eight, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is and

1565
01:12:50,492 --> 01:12:52,972
Speaker 4: number to call? What are the gray years of the road?

1566
01:12:53,093 --> 01:12:55,732
Speaker 4: Rules that need to be called out? Or what have

1567
01:12:55,853 --> 01:12:58,173
Speaker 4: you come up against? Love to hear from you? Nineteen

1568
01:12:58,253 --> 01:12:59,452
Speaker 4: ninety two is the text number?

1569
01:12:59,612 --> 01:13:01,253
Speaker 2: Oh no, I got it wrong?

1570
01:13:01,812 --> 01:13:02,333
Speaker 3: What happens?

1571
01:13:02,772 --> 01:13:04,812
Speaker 2: And the final episode of Friends with the sext of

1572
01:13:04,933 --> 01:13:08,372
Speaker 2: May two thousand and four, how dare you shame? The

1573
01:13:08,412 --> 01:13:09,812
Speaker 2: stick said? Why is Colin on the phone?

1574
01:13:10,133 --> 01:13:10,333
Speaker 6: Did I?

1575
01:13:10,452 --> 01:13:12,652
Speaker 2: Did I tell that story? Poorly? That wasn't my dog

1576
01:13:12,692 --> 01:13:14,213
Speaker 2: Colin that was on the phone when the woman was

1577
01:13:14,492 --> 01:13:17,093
Speaker 2: filling out Colin was on the lead. The woman was

1578
01:13:17,133 --> 01:13:17,532
Speaker 2: on the phone.

1579
01:13:17,652 --> 01:13:18,972
Speaker 3: Clearly Colin wasn't on the phone.

1580
01:13:19,053 --> 01:13:21,133
Speaker 2: If Colin wants to jump on the phone on our

1581
01:13:21,173 --> 01:13:23,093
Speaker 2: walks and then my dog's more than welcome to.

1582
01:13:23,213 --> 01:13:23,852
Speaker 3: He's a good boy.

1583
01:13:24,692 --> 01:13:25,572
Speaker 2: I'll get in my headset.

Speaker 4: News Talks It be it is six two three and

1588
01:13:38,013 --> 01:13:41,213
Speaker 4: we're talking about the gray areas of our road rules.

1589
01:13:41,253 --> 01:13:42,892
Speaker 3: Plenty out there. It seems like one hundred and eight

1590
01:13:43,013 --> 01:13:43,852
Speaker 3: ten eighties number to coop.

1591
01:13:43,933 --> 01:13:46,013
Speaker 2: Yeah, And we were talking before about the diamond that's

1592
01:13:46,013 --> 01:13:48,492
Speaker 2: painted on the road before a pedestrian crossing, because someone

1593
01:13:48,612 --> 01:13:50,532
Speaker 2: said that reading out of texts that had it wrong

1594
01:13:50,853 --> 01:13:54,412
Speaker 2: could lead to people, Oh, dremante dramatic. It was a

1595
01:13:54,492 --> 01:14:01,092
Speaker 2: dramatic text from that numpty that cotton headed Ninny Muggins.

1596
01:14:01,333 --> 01:14:02,293
Speaker 3: Nice, that's a good one.

1597
01:14:02,412 --> 01:14:04,412
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good Let's make a night of that.

1598
01:14:04,532 --> 01:14:06,732
Speaker 2: That's from the movie Elf. Put that in your repertoire

1599
01:14:06,772 --> 01:14:08,893
Speaker 2: of soft insults, Tyler, I have. I've just written that

1600
01:14:08,933 --> 01:14:10,772
Speaker 2: one down. Here we go. The diamonds painted on the

1601
01:14:10,853 --> 01:14:13,053
Speaker 2: road might not mean what you think they mean. This

1602
01:14:13,213 --> 01:14:17,052
Speaker 2: is from an article from twenty twenty four. On Sunday,

1603
01:14:17,053 --> 01:14:19,892
Speaker 2: Wellington cyclist James Sullivan was almost hit by a countdown

1604
01:14:19,933 --> 01:14:22,652
Speaker 2: delivery truck after he stopped for a pedestrian carrying a

1605
01:14:22,772 --> 01:14:25,852
Speaker 2: baby across the road. He recorded the footage on his

1606
01:14:25,973 --> 01:14:29,372
Speaker 2: bike cameras showing the delivery truck was centimeters from his

1607
01:14:29,452 --> 01:14:31,692
Speaker 2: bike when it passed him. In response, several readers and

1608
01:14:31,853 --> 01:14:34,372
Speaker 2: social media users raised the point that both Sullivan and

1609
01:14:34,412 --> 01:14:36,412
Speaker 2: the truck had gone past the diamond painted on the

1610
01:14:36,492 --> 01:14:41,692
Speaker 2: road in their incorrect interpretation of the road code code.

1611
01:14:41,812 --> 01:14:45,092
Speaker 2: This article in this paper needs an editor. The vehicles

1612
01:14:45,133 --> 01:14:47,213
Speaker 2: did not have to stop for the pedestrian once they

1613
01:14:47,253 --> 01:14:50,772
Speaker 2: had passed the diamond. This is not the case. According

1614
01:14:50,812 --> 01:14:53,652
Speaker 2: to the road code and guidance from Waka Kotahi in

1615
01:14:53,812 --> 01:14:56,532
Speaker 2: z Transport Agency, drivers must always be ready to stop

1616
01:14:56,532 --> 01:14:59,652
Speaker 2: at a pedestrian crossing. The diamonds do not come into

1617
01:14:59,692 --> 01:15:03,253
Speaker 2: it like a triangle on the road for a giveway sign.

1618
01:15:03,333 --> 01:15:05,293
Speaker 2: A diamond on the road for a pedestrian crossing is

1619
01:15:05,333 --> 01:15:07,892
Speaker 2: a warning. It means a pedestrian crossing is coming up

1620
01:15:08,372 --> 01:15:10,612
Speaker 2: and you should be aware of surroundings. I mean it

1621
01:15:10,652 --> 01:15:13,293
Speaker 2: would be insane for someone even if the rule was

1622
01:15:13,372 --> 01:15:15,932
Speaker 2: different from that you're trying and force it. I mean,

1623
01:15:15,973 --> 01:15:18,652
Speaker 2: if you're coming up to a zebra crossing or a

1624
01:15:18,692 --> 01:15:21,053
Speaker 2: pedestrian crossing. I mean, I remember once a cop came

1625
01:15:21,093 --> 01:15:22,293
Speaker 2: to our school and told me off for calling it

1626
01:15:22,293 --> 01:15:24,372
Speaker 2: at zebra crossing when I was five. You said you're

1627
01:15:24,412 --> 01:15:26,612
Speaker 2: too old to be calling it a pedestrian a zebra crossing.

1628
01:15:26,612 --> 01:15:28,333
Speaker 2: As a pedestrian crossing, you know, there's a different issue.

1629
01:15:29,412 --> 01:15:31,293
Speaker 2: If you're coming up to it, you're looking and going

1630
01:15:31,452 --> 01:15:33,692
Speaker 2: as there, you're looking to stop at a pedestrian crossing

1631
01:15:33,692 --> 01:15:35,772
Speaker 2: one hundred percent, you're looking even you're even looking at

1632
01:15:35,812 --> 01:15:38,492
Speaker 2: pedestrians are close and looking and hunting that they're going

1633
01:15:38,532 --> 01:15:41,492
Speaker 2: to come across. Yeah, you know, well, once they're on there,

1634
01:15:42,053 --> 01:15:44,173
Speaker 2: you're not enforcing any issue. No one's looking at their

1635
01:15:44,253 --> 01:15:45,973
Speaker 2: road rual book and saying, oh, I'm in the right

1636
01:15:46,053 --> 01:15:47,572
Speaker 2: arway here. I'm just going to keep going to mow

1637
01:15:47,652 --> 01:15:49,892
Speaker 2: this person down. Of course they're not right.

1638
01:15:49,893 --> 01:15:52,572
Speaker 4: We're going to carry this on after three o'clock. So

1639
01:15:52,732 --> 01:15:55,173
Speaker 4: plenty of great texts coming through on nine two ninety two.

Speaker 4: punishing and your full name.

1671
01:17:19,572 --> 01:17:20,652
Speaker 3: So back to this discussion.

1672
01:17:20,692 --> 01:17:23,372
Speaker 4: We started off mentioning who gives way to who when

1673
01:17:23,532 --> 01:17:26,333
Speaker 4: you meet another driver on a narrow road, But it's

1674
01:17:26,412 --> 01:17:27,333
Speaker 4: become much.

1675
01:17:27,213 --> 01:17:29,932
Speaker 3: Wider than that. Great areas of the road rule.

1676
01:17:30,013 --> 01:17:31,732
Speaker 4: That is just one of them, but there are so

1677
01:17:31,853 --> 01:17:34,013
Speaker 4: many coming through on nine two ninety two, and we

1678
01:17:34,093 --> 01:17:35,333
Speaker 4: want to hear from you on oh, eight hundred and

1679
01:17:35,372 --> 01:17:36,253
Speaker 4: eighty ten eighty as well.

1680
01:17:36,612 --> 01:17:40,253
Speaker 2: This Texas is can you drink while you're driving? And look,

1681
01:17:40,293 --> 01:17:42,253
Speaker 2: that sounds like a silly question, but if actually think

1682
01:17:42,253 --> 01:17:44,973
Speaker 2: about a bit deeper, of course you can drink a

1683
01:17:46,293 --> 01:17:50,492
Speaker 2: softwaink you drinking you're driving? Yes, but surely if you

1684
01:17:50,572 --> 01:17:52,652
Speaker 2: remain under the alcohol limit, it's not a great look

1685
01:17:52,933 --> 01:17:56,333
Speaker 2: and it may, you know, excite the entrance interest of

1686
01:17:56,372 --> 01:17:59,253
Speaker 2: the police. But surely if you're under the limit, then

1687
01:17:59,293 --> 01:18:02,372
Speaker 2: you could drink a alcoholic drink while you're driving the car,

1688
01:18:02,452 --> 01:18:04,213
Speaker 2: as long as you didn't drink to the point of

1689
01:18:04,372 --> 01:18:05,372
Speaker 2: being over the limit.

1690
01:18:05,532 --> 01:18:07,852
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm pretty sure that is that a loophole that

1691
01:18:07,973 --> 01:18:09,932
Speaker 4: if you've had a big date at the ski field

1692
01:18:09,973 --> 01:18:11,852
Speaker 4: and you decide to crack a beer on the drive home,

1693
01:18:12,053 --> 01:18:13,692
Speaker 4: and it's your only beer of the day, and it's

1694
01:18:13,732 --> 01:18:17,093
Speaker 4: the only beer you're going to have, then you're under

1695
01:18:17,133 --> 01:18:17,532
Speaker 4: the limit.

1696
01:18:18,173 --> 01:18:20,612
Speaker 3: That's the gray area. I'm sure that's that's the case.

1697
01:18:20,812 --> 01:18:23,213
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting. Well, would make sense because if you're

1698
01:18:23,253 --> 01:18:25,213
Speaker 2: not if you're not drunk, then you're not breaking the law.

1699
01:18:25,692 --> 01:18:25,892
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1700
01:18:26,213 --> 01:18:28,012
Speaker 2: But I mean if you go driving past the cops

1701
01:18:28,053 --> 01:18:30,173
Speaker 2: and you're got.

1702
01:18:29,692 --> 01:18:31,333
Speaker 3: A heinie in your in your gob.

1703
01:18:31,293 --> 01:18:34,652
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've got it. You've got an espresso martini in

1704
01:18:34,692 --> 01:18:38,053
Speaker 2: your hand, that would be impressive. Then they're probably gonna

1705
01:18:38,133 --> 01:18:39,452
Speaker 2: they're probably gonna to have a chat to you.

1706
01:18:39,612 --> 01:18:42,372
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly one hundred and eighty ten eighty the number

1707
01:18:42,452 --> 01:18:42,812
Speaker 3: to call.

1708
01:18:42,933 --> 01:18:45,052
Speaker 2: Oh, Steve, you want to talk about the numpty issue.

1709
01:18:45,772 --> 01:18:48,532
Speaker 10: Yeah, I'll just answer your first question. Just you're drinking.

1710
01:18:48,933 --> 01:18:51,293
Speaker 10: So that's that's an American thing. If you've got an

1711
01:18:51,293 --> 01:18:53,692
Speaker 10: open vessel in your vehicle while you're driving, it doesn't

1712
01:18:53,692 --> 01:18:55,772
Speaker 10: matter if it's a passenger in the back seat or anywhere.

1713
01:18:56,013 --> 01:18:58,852
Speaker 10: You get done to DUI but if you deal no

1714
01:18:58,973 --> 01:19:01,253
Speaker 10: problems at all, you can drive home with a heinie

1715
01:19:01,253 --> 01:19:03,652
Speaker 10: in your hands. As long as you're not over the

1716
01:19:03,692 --> 01:19:07,772
Speaker 10: limit and you haven't blown over two fifty, Yeah, you're

1717
01:19:07,812 --> 01:19:08,173
Speaker 10: good to go.

1718
01:19:09,093 --> 01:19:12,213
Speaker 2: Which which which makes sense because because you're not committing

1719
01:19:12,253 --> 01:19:14,612
Speaker 2: a crime, because because it's silly, because because if you

1720
01:19:14,652 --> 01:19:16,372
Speaker 2: could have had the one beer as you were leaning

1721
01:19:16,412 --> 01:19:18,932
Speaker 2: against the car before you get in. Exactly, it's it's

1722
01:19:19,013 --> 01:19:21,492
Speaker 2: the state of abriation and they've decided the limit of that.

1723
01:19:21,692 --> 01:19:23,572
Speaker 6: So so yeah, it's probably not.

1724
01:19:23,572 --> 01:19:25,772
Speaker 10: The safest thing to do, Like driving your phone in

1725
01:19:25,812 --> 01:19:27,452
Speaker 10: your handles space, it's probably not much difference.

1726
01:19:27,652 --> 01:19:31,253
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. I don't I don't think there's

1727
01:19:31,253 --> 01:19:33,333
Speaker 2: something about that doesn't feel right. But you know you

1728
01:19:33,532 --> 01:19:35,772
Speaker 2: did you You've done it a few times, Steve. It's enjoyable,

1729
01:19:36,053 --> 01:19:36,333
Speaker 2: I feel.

1730
01:19:36,372 --> 01:19:38,173
Speaker 10: And I ran the booze I ran the booze bus

1731
01:19:38,293 --> 01:19:42,013
Speaker 10: and Thomas and North. You know, I think it's all

1732
01:19:42,053 --> 01:19:42,852
Speaker 10: about drink driving.

1733
01:19:43,333 --> 01:19:45,532
Speaker 2: Did you did anyone anyone ever pull up to the

1734
01:19:45,572 --> 01:19:47,333
Speaker 2: booze bus under the limit drinking and beer?

1735
01:19:48,692 --> 01:19:52,692
Speaker 10: I can't remember. Actually, the best story I've got Well,

1736
01:19:52,973 --> 01:19:56,013
Speaker 10: if you've got time, this is a classic, right, so

1737
01:19:56,492 --> 01:19:58,173
Speaker 10: I was very young in the job. Is that pun

1738
01:19:58,253 --> 01:20:01,333
Speaker 10: or tevan rocked up at about eleven o'clock was closing time,

1739
01:20:01,412 --> 01:20:03,213
Speaker 10: and there must have been one hundred cars in there,

1740
01:20:03,213 --> 01:20:04,452
Speaker 10: and I thought, man, I'm going to get a drink

1741
01:20:04,492 --> 01:20:06,933
Speaker 10: driver for sure. This is awesome. Guy stumbled out of

1742
01:20:06,973 --> 01:20:08,293
Speaker 10: the pub. This is a true story, by the way,

1743
01:20:08,973 --> 01:20:11,013
Speaker 10: and he drops his keys and he finally gets the car,

1744
01:20:11,053 --> 01:20:13,412
Speaker 10: and he finally gets his car, and I'm just rubbing

1745
01:20:13,492 --> 01:20:16,692
Speaker 10: my hands, going, oh, this is good. It's like going fishing, mate,

1746
01:20:17,333 --> 01:20:19,452
Speaker 10: And he speeds up the road. He jumps to the

1747
01:20:19,532 --> 01:20:22,852
Speaker 10: carry rockets off and hell so I'm tearing up the

1748
01:20:22,973 --> 01:20:25,093
Speaker 10: road after him, and I catch him about two k's later,

1749
01:20:25,253 --> 01:20:27,972
Speaker 10: and I put enough. I get back to the tapoona

1750
01:20:27,973 --> 01:20:29,933
Speaker 10: t heaven and there was not a car left in

1751
01:20:29,973 --> 01:20:30,253
Speaker 10: the car.

1752
01:20:31,652 --> 01:20:31,892
Speaker 13: Ah.

1753
01:20:32,253 --> 01:20:36,333
Speaker 3: He was the wee decoy, the rabbit. They called it

1754
01:20:36,452 --> 01:20:36,932
Speaker 3: the rabbit.

1755
01:20:37,933 --> 01:20:40,532
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, the.

1756
01:20:40,612 --> 01:20:42,692
Speaker 2: Dark side of the designated driver, isn't it.

1757
01:20:42,812 --> 01:20:46,612
Speaker 3: WoT You've got a smile though, don't you, designated rabbit?

1758
01:20:47,093 --> 01:20:47,293
Speaker 13: Yeah?

1759
01:20:47,612 --> 01:20:51,612
Speaker 2: So he did an impressive drunk persons impression, got in

1760
01:20:51,692 --> 01:20:54,213
Speaker 2: the car, threw away the.

1761
01:20:54,213 --> 01:20:58,052
Speaker 10: Policeman because the obviously saw me parked up down the road. Yeah,

1762
01:20:58,572 --> 01:21:00,893
Speaker 10: we got on stated it and they got away with it.

1763
01:21:01,053 --> 01:21:02,973
Speaker 10: And obviously the no one crashed that night, so it

1764
01:21:03,053 --> 01:21:05,213
Speaker 10: was a good, good result all around. But what I

1765
01:21:05,253 --> 01:21:08,293
Speaker 10: was ringing about because one of my boys were nicknamed

1766
01:21:08,492 --> 01:21:11,333
Speaker 10: Numpty on the boost bus and he was a classic.

1767
01:21:11,412 --> 01:21:14,012
Speaker 10: He one day was a public holiday and he didn't

1768
01:21:14,053 --> 01:21:16,053
Speaker 10: turn up to work and we bring him where the

1769
01:21:16,093 --> 01:21:18,452
Speaker 10: hell are you? And he goes, oh, I didn't think

1770
01:21:18,532 --> 01:21:23,932
Speaker 10: we had to work on a public holiday. And then

1771
01:21:23,973 --> 01:21:26,333
Speaker 10: it gets worse, and so we're round one and he

1772
01:21:26,452 --> 01:21:28,973
Speaker 10: and you know, we get a lot of chases, right,

1773
01:21:29,053 --> 01:21:32,173
Speaker 10: and we're chasing some I don't know, a stolen car

1774
01:21:32,293 --> 01:21:35,333
Speaker 10: or something or drunk driver around the streets and everyone's

1775
01:21:35,412 --> 01:21:37,772
Speaker 10: coming in from We had about five or six cars

1776
01:21:37,812 --> 01:21:40,532
Speaker 10: out chasing trying to catch this guy. And we finally

1777
01:21:40,612 --> 01:21:42,092
Speaker 10: catch him and we all go back to the station

1778
01:21:42,253 --> 01:21:44,812
Speaker 10: and there's Numpty back at the station. I said, mate,

1779
01:21:44,812 --> 01:21:46,293
Speaker 10: why didn't you enjoy it? When did you join in?

1780
01:21:46,412 --> 01:21:46,852
Speaker 7: Where were you?

1781
01:21:47,452 --> 01:21:47,612
Speaker 18: Well?

1782
01:21:47,692 --> 01:21:49,692
Speaker 10: I didn't want to get lost, so I just drove

1783
01:21:49,933 --> 01:21:52,133
Speaker 10: one block around the police station and just went around

Speaker 3: He's in the Yeah.

1805
01:22:35,333 --> 01:22:35,853
Speaker 2: Absolutely.

1806
01:22:35,973 --> 01:22:37,532
Speaker 4: Oh eight one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the

1807
01:22:37,612 --> 01:22:40,612
Speaker 4: number to call great areas on the road code. There's

1808
01:22:40,652 --> 01:22:42,253
Speaker 4: so many ticks coming through on nine to two, nine

1809
01:22:42,293 --> 01:22:42,772
Speaker 4: to two as well.

1810
01:22:43,572 --> 01:22:46,532
Speaker 2: If you're over, take a deep breath and blow as

1811
01:22:46,572 --> 01:22:48,333
Speaker 2: hard as you can. It's the idiots that blow as

1812
01:22:48,372 --> 01:22:50,852
Speaker 2: gently as possible that always felt. No, there's no.

1813
01:22:51,013 --> 01:22:51,333
Speaker 7: I don't know.

1814
01:22:51,452 --> 01:22:53,652
Speaker 4: That sounds like an old wife star. I don't know

1815
01:22:53,692 --> 01:22:55,933
Speaker 4: if you can outbreathe the breathalyzer.

1816
01:22:56,173 --> 01:22:58,412
Speaker 2: No, I think I think the best approach is to

1817
01:22:59,093 --> 01:23:00,012
Speaker 2: probably not drive drunk.

1818
01:23:00,293 --> 01:23:01,892
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that was that was rule.

1819
01:23:02,293 --> 01:23:03,572
Speaker 2: But that's the best way not to get panned for

1820
01:23:03,692 --> 01:23:04,173
Speaker 2: drink driving.

1821
01:23:04,213 --> 01:23:04,852
Speaker 3: That's how you beat it.

1822
01:23:06,253 --> 01:23:08,412
Speaker 2: Hey, lads, you're not allowed to drive while speaking on

1823
01:23:08,492 --> 01:23:10,492
Speaker 2: the phone, But what if I drive with the banana

1824
01:23:10,572 --> 01:23:13,572
Speaker 2: to my ear and starts talking to that? Is that illegal?

1825
01:23:13,732 --> 01:23:17,372
Speaker 2: What's the difference between that and a phone? No, that's interesting.

1826
01:23:17,692 --> 01:23:18,333
Speaker 3: It's a good point.

1827
01:23:18,372 --> 01:23:20,652
Speaker 2: It's a good question. But I mean, that's the thing.

1828
01:23:20,692 --> 01:23:20,852
Speaker 16: I mean.

1829
01:23:20,853 --> 01:23:23,213
Speaker 2: I also think like drink eating a really hot pie.

1830
01:23:23,452 --> 01:23:26,412
Speaker 2: There used to be these spinach and cheese pies, so

1831
01:23:26,492 --> 01:23:28,133
Speaker 2: you get from posibly pies. Yeah, it was the only

1832
01:23:28,213 --> 01:23:31,092
Speaker 2: vegetarian pile alight. But the first bite it would always

1833
01:23:31,732 --> 01:23:34,932
Speaker 2: unleash like a waterfall of boiling hot water. That would

1834
01:23:35,333 --> 01:23:38,132
Speaker 2: cause you to scream in agony. Yeah, that's right, driving

1835
01:23:38,173 --> 01:23:40,253
Speaker 2: and anyone in them, Yeah, you know, I nearly it

1836
01:23:40,452 --> 01:23:42,772
Speaker 2: nearly caused an accident a bit, far far worse than

1837
01:23:42,812 --> 01:23:43,452
Speaker 2: talking on the phone.

1838
01:23:43,692 --> 01:23:46,212
Speaker 3: Wasn't there an ad where it was about driver distraction?

1839
01:23:46,333 --> 01:23:48,293
Speaker 4: And there was one feller in the air that was

1840
01:23:48,333 --> 01:23:50,732
Speaker 4: eating his pie boon to hands and then he drove

1841
01:23:50,772 --> 01:23:51,932
Speaker 4: off the side of the rown into a fence.

1842
01:23:51,973 --> 01:23:55,532
Speaker 2: I could see that aning I just drove over three crossings.

1843
01:23:55,612 --> 01:23:57,572
Speaker 2: The diamond is at least twenty meters away from the crossing.

1844
01:23:57,652 --> 01:23:59,732
Speaker 2: So yes, it's a warning of a crossing. Yeah, I

1845
01:23:59,772 --> 01:24:01,732
Speaker 2: mean I think we all we all kind of knew that.

1846
01:24:01,812 --> 01:24:04,133
Speaker 2: It was just someone that got excited and thought that

1847
01:24:04,772 --> 01:24:06,973
Speaker 2: if you get it, if you're past the diamond, you

1848
01:24:07,013 --> 01:24:09,132
Speaker 2: can put your foot down and playoff through the pedestrian.

1849
01:24:09,213 --> 01:24:10,933
Speaker 3: Yes, no one's going to get that smug just to

1850
01:24:11,093 --> 01:24:11,812
Speaker 3: mow down somebody.

1851
01:24:11,853 --> 01:24:13,933
Speaker 4: Oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is number to

1852
01:24:14,013 --> 01:24:16,572
Speaker 4: call the gray areas of our road rules.

1853
01:24:16,652 --> 01:24:17,293
Speaker 3: Love to hear from you.

1854
01:24:17,412 --> 01:24:19,333
Speaker 2: It is quarter past three US Talks.

1855
01:24:19,333 --> 01:24:21,452
Speaker 4: It'd be very good afternoon to you're talking about the

1856
01:24:21,492 --> 01:24:24,492
Speaker 4: gray areas of the road code where people might not

1857
01:24:24,572 --> 01:24:26,973
Speaker 4: be familiar with the law or there might not be

1858
01:24:27,173 --> 01:24:30,093
Speaker 4: any rules that actually apply. Oh, eight hundred and eighty

1859
01:24:30,213 --> 01:24:32,772
Speaker 4: ten eighty. It started off with something that a lot

1860
01:24:32,772 --> 01:24:35,333
Speaker 4: of people have faced. You come to a narrow road,

1861
01:24:36,093 --> 01:24:38,452
Speaker 4: cars parked on both sides, and you meet someone in

1862
01:24:38,492 --> 01:24:40,572
Speaker 4: the middle who gives way, and it turns out there's

1863
01:24:40,612 --> 01:24:43,692
Speaker 4: no actual official rules. It's based on courtesy, But can

1864
01:24:43,732 --> 01:24:45,133
Speaker 4: you hear from you on I eight hundred and eighty

1865
01:24:45,213 --> 01:24:46,213
Speaker 4: ten eighty.

1866
01:24:46,133 --> 01:24:48,572
Speaker 2: Maybe, because it'll be hard to make a rule because

1867
01:24:48,572 --> 01:24:51,052
Speaker 2: it'd be quite complicated. Say well, if you are closer

1868
01:24:51,133 --> 01:24:53,333
Speaker 2: to a gap where you can pull over to let

1869
01:24:53,412 --> 01:24:56,053
Speaker 2: the person through, then you let them go through it.

1870
01:24:56,093 --> 01:24:57,892
Speaker 2: You know, we have to be a very hard thing

1871
01:24:58,452 --> 01:25:00,452
Speaker 2: to work out. But what happens in an accident?

1872
01:25:00,452 --> 01:25:02,492
Speaker 4: I've always thought about that because it's calm close to

1873
01:25:02,572 --> 01:25:05,172
Speaker 4: losing my wing mirror a couple of times in that scenario.

1874
01:25:05,333 --> 01:25:07,452
Speaker 2: But if I lose my wing in terms of who

1875
01:25:07,973 --> 01:25:10,892
Speaker 2: takes capability and as far as insurance is concerned or something.

1876
01:25:11,053 --> 01:25:13,213
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, So what happens in that scenario where you

1877
01:25:13,293 --> 01:25:16,172
Speaker 4: call the police and say we were both yeah, gunning

1878
01:25:16,253 --> 01:25:17,812
Speaker 4: for it, Yeah we could make it work.

1879
01:25:18,013 --> 01:25:20,452
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you you know, got angry and ended up

1880
01:25:20,452 --> 01:25:23,213
Speaker 2: in a game of sort of half chicken. Yeah, yeah,

1881
01:25:24,452 --> 01:25:26,333
Speaker 2: that would that would be interesting if.

1882
01:25:26,253 --> 01:25:27,492
Speaker 3: You've ever been in that situation.

1883
01:25:27,853 --> 01:25:29,333
Speaker 2: Have you ever been in a situation where you've got

1884
01:25:29,372 --> 01:25:31,333
Speaker 2: both gone through and then one of you said to

1885
01:25:31,372 --> 01:25:34,892
Speaker 2: reverse yep, right, and was that you No, you don't

1886
01:25:34,893 --> 01:25:37,333
Speaker 2: have my ground. I held my ground and we were

1887
01:25:37,372 --> 01:25:40,093
Speaker 2: both really angry. And again I didn't feel good about

1888
01:25:40,093 --> 01:25:42,692
Speaker 2: myself after this, but I just refused and then ended

1889
01:25:42,772 --> 01:25:43,692
Speaker 2: up getting out of the car.

1890
01:25:43,812 --> 01:25:45,572
Speaker 4: He got out of the car. But then in the

1891
01:25:45,812 --> 01:25:48,372
Speaker 4: end the people are honking behind us. Sorted that out.

1892
01:25:48,412 --> 01:25:50,412
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's not a situation you really want to

1893
01:25:50,452 --> 01:25:50,852
Speaker 3: get into.

1894
01:25:52,053 --> 01:25:54,692
Speaker 2: Isn't that silly? How angry we get on the roads?

1895
01:25:54,772 --> 01:25:56,973
Speaker 3: Come on, I look back at that just as I

1896
01:25:57,053 --> 01:25:59,572
Speaker 3: was saying that, man, man, you're a numpty tiler. Why

1897
01:25:59,652 --> 01:26:01,093
Speaker 3: did you just get to that point? Should it just

1898
01:26:01,213 --> 01:26:03,293
Speaker 3: reversed and let them through? It's not the end of

1899
01:26:03,333 --> 01:26:03,612
Speaker 3: the world.

1900
01:26:03,772 --> 01:26:05,972
Speaker 2: Hey, lads, can you drink zero alcohol bea while driving?

1901
01:26:06,053 --> 01:26:07,933
Speaker 2: Cheers Shane. Yeah you can smash them back because you

1902
01:26:07,973 --> 01:26:10,253
Speaker 2: can any of you from slamming soda.

1903
01:26:10,372 --> 01:26:12,293
Speaker 3: Yeah, go hard on those ross.

1904
01:26:12,692 --> 01:26:14,772
Speaker 23: How are you good things? Mate?

1905
01:26:14,772 --> 01:26:16,692
Speaker 3: And you yeah very well. So you want to talk

1906
01:26:16,692 --> 01:26:17,652
Speaker 3: about who gives way to who?

1907
01:26:18,572 --> 01:26:19,093
Speaker 23: That's right?

1908
01:26:19,333 --> 01:26:19,532
Speaker 9: Yeah?

1909
01:26:20,013 --> 01:26:23,013
Speaker 23: How how it actually works of living Willington And I'll

1910
01:26:23,053 --> 01:26:26,452
Speaker 23: be also, I've been a driver trainer. How it works

1911
01:26:26,492 --> 01:26:29,333
Speaker 23: for the narrow roads with cars parked on the side

1912
01:26:29,372 --> 01:26:32,972
Speaker 23: of the road. Say I'm for example, say I'm driving

1913
01:26:33,093 --> 01:26:35,812
Speaker 23: north and there's a park car on my side of

1914
01:26:35,853 --> 01:26:37,972
Speaker 23: the road that I've got to go round, and there's

1915
01:26:37,973 --> 01:26:41,732
Speaker 23: a car coming south, I have to actually give way

1916
01:26:41,812 --> 01:26:45,892
Speaker 23: to the car coming south because there is what's called

1917
01:26:45,933 --> 01:26:50,812
Speaker 23: an imaginary center line, right, and I across that center

1918
01:26:50,933 --> 01:26:54,093
Speaker 23: line in in front of it of the car that's

1919
01:26:54,133 --> 01:26:57,293
Speaker 23: coming south and I haven't, I can be charged with

1920
01:26:57,492 --> 01:26:59,053
Speaker 23: driving on the wrong side of the road.

1921
01:26:59,893 --> 01:27:02,372
Speaker 2: Right, So the center line. If this car is parked

1922
01:27:02,372 --> 01:27:05,133
Speaker 2: along one side of the road, that center line is

1923
01:27:05,213 --> 01:27:07,692
Speaker 2: not affected by the cars obviously, that's just down the

1924
01:27:07,772 --> 01:27:08,972
Speaker 2: center of the actual road.

1925
01:27:09,612 --> 01:27:10,093
Speaker 23: That's right.

1926
01:27:10,213 --> 01:27:12,253
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. That does make sense.

1927
01:27:12,772 --> 01:27:16,572
Speaker 23: Now, if you've got so you've got a guy who

1928
01:27:16,732 --> 01:27:19,093
Speaker 23: wants to play chicken with you, then he wants to

1929
01:27:19,173 --> 01:27:25,133
Speaker 23: come through first, it's still maybe and for example, maybe

1930
01:27:25,213 --> 01:27:27,852
Speaker 23: you get to the car that you want to go

1931
01:27:28,013 --> 01:27:34,452
Speaker 23: around first. That still that rule still applies. If if

1932
01:27:34,772 --> 01:27:40,253
Speaker 23: he plays chicken with you and he hits you, you're

1933
01:27:40,293 --> 01:27:42,372
Speaker 23: still at fault for cross and that center line.

1934
01:27:43,173 --> 01:27:46,452
Speaker 2: What if both of you have crossed the center line ross,

1935
01:27:46,492 --> 01:27:47,892
Speaker 2: Where do you end up in that scenario?

1936
01:27:49,213 --> 01:27:52,213
Speaker 23: Well, then then it's up to a discretion really on

1937
01:27:52,452 --> 01:27:55,612
Speaker 23: who who was going to give way to whom?

1938
01:27:55,893 --> 01:27:59,692
Speaker 2: M yeah, yeah, what advice do you give to when

1939
01:27:59,692 --> 01:28:03,213
Speaker 2: you're teaching kids to drive, because imagine around Wellington it's

1940
01:28:03,772 --> 01:28:05,732
Speaker 2: this is quite a big issue with the narrow streets.

1941
01:28:05,732 --> 01:28:09,173
Speaker 2: There some very complicated streets there. What advice do you

1942
01:28:09,253 --> 01:28:12,093
Speaker 2: give them, you know, for gray area things like this.

1943
01:28:15,612 --> 01:28:19,253
Speaker 23: Well, basically a good example of us is especially with

1944
01:28:19,333 --> 01:28:23,253
Speaker 23: the willingtoon bus drivers. If I've got big busses and

1945
01:28:23,572 --> 01:28:26,652
Speaker 23: they seem to think because A're bigger than you, they

1946
01:28:26,812 --> 01:28:32,572
Speaker 23: have the right away, generally I would turn around and say,

1947
01:28:33,133 --> 01:28:38,492
Speaker 23: just pull, just use your courtesy, even though you've got

1948
01:28:38,532 --> 01:28:41,412
Speaker 23: the right away, let them go, just let.

1949
01:28:41,372 --> 01:28:42,132
Speaker 7: Them go first.

1950
01:28:42,612 --> 01:28:46,053
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well courtesy, isn't it like?

1951
01:28:46,253 --> 01:28:48,452
Speaker 4: And I get that, but I suppose what goes wrong

1952
01:28:48,532 --> 01:28:51,933
Speaker 4: with that old who gives way situation is try to

1953
01:28:52,013 --> 01:28:54,812
Speaker 4: be courteous and snow skin off my nose. Just let

1954
01:28:54,853 --> 01:28:56,772
Speaker 4: people pass if they've got if they are more of

1955
01:28:56,772 --> 01:29:00,572
Speaker 4: a hurry, which they usually are, but then you feel

1956
01:29:00,612 --> 01:29:02,652
Speaker 4: like you're doing a good deed, and then they don't wave,

1957
01:29:02,732 --> 01:29:06,012
Speaker 4: so that annoys me, and then again someone starts racing

1958
01:29:06,133 --> 01:29:08,572
Speaker 4: up ross to try and squeeze in there. At that

1959
01:29:08,692 --> 01:29:11,253
Speaker 4: point I'd lose it and say not, you've taken the pass.

1960
01:29:11,572 --> 01:29:13,612
Speaker 4: I've tried to be courteous, tried to do the right

1961
01:29:13,692 --> 01:29:16,692
Speaker 4: thing here, but you are letting the side down. That's

1962
01:29:16,732 --> 01:29:17,652
Speaker 4: where it all goes wrong for me.

1963
01:29:17,772 --> 01:29:18,012
Speaker 8: Ross.

1964
01:29:18,853 --> 01:29:21,812
Speaker 23: Yeah, yeah, and I agree. I agree. I mean, you know,

1965
01:29:22,572 --> 01:29:24,293
Speaker 23: you could sit on the side of the road and

1966
01:29:24,412 --> 01:29:28,973
Speaker 23: let all the cars first, you know, you know, I mean,

1967
01:29:29,213 --> 01:29:34,732
Speaker 23: as long as you know you let the car that's

1968
01:29:35,133 --> 01:29:38,053
Speaker 23: nearest to you, the front car, you let that through.

1969
01:29:38,133 --> 01:29:40,973
Speaker 23: And if there's a couple of cars behind you, let

1970
01:29:41,053 --> 01:29:43,812
Speaker 23: them follow through too. If it's a get then you

1971
01:29:44,013 --> 01:29:46,572
Speaker 23: take you take off, You go around and make that

1972
01:29:46,692 --> 01:29:50,572
Speaker 23: other person slow down and liet you three.

1973
01:29:50,812 --> 01:29:52,933
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, thank if you cool, Ross, thank you for

1974
01:29:52,973 --> 01:29:57,412
Speaker 2: your expertise. Yeah. I mean, Tyler, it makes you angry.

1975
01:29:57,933 --> 01:29:59,732
Speaker 2: But at what point do you become a vigilante? Is

1976
01:29:59,732 --> 01:30:02,452
Speaker 2: that what you're saying? Yeah, so there's three And then

1977
01:30:02,532 --> 01:30:04,973
Speaker 2: suddenly Tyler becomes full batman and goes, I don't care

1978
01:30:05,013 --> 01:30:07,133
Speaker 2: what happens. I've got the right away. I'm coming through

1979
01:30:07,173 --> 01:30:07,572
Speaker 2: at pace.

1980
01:30:07,772 --> 01:30:10,412
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's exactly it. And then it becomes who DearS win?

1981
01:30:10,492 --> 01:30:11,732
Speaker 4: So I start off saying I'm going to be a

1982
01:30:11,772 --> 01:30:14,053
Speaker 4: good citizen here, and you know, come on, through, even

1983
01:30:14,093 --> 01:30:16,053
Speaker 4: though you should have given the given way to me,

1984
01:30:16,213 --> 01:30:18,412
Speaker 4: come on through. And then there comes a point where

1985
01:30:18,452 --> 01:30:20,372
Speaker 4: then I start feeling like these people are walking over

1986
01:30:20,452 --> 01:30:22,652
Speaker 4: me now, so I'm going to turn and mister.

1987
01:30:22,572 --> 01:30:25,253
Speaker 2: Vitel, for that last person that takes advantage. They might

1988
01:30:25,293 --> 01:30:26,973
Speaker 2: not know how many other people have gone past. They

1989
01:30:27,093 --> 01:30:28,893
Speaker 2: just having to be the fifth person. That's just to

1990
01:30:28,933 --> 01:30:31,572
Speaker 2: be in a little bit cheeky. And then Tyler goes

1991
01:30:31,732 --> 01:30:36,293
Speaker 2: full batmobile and drives over your car. What about buses

1992
01:30:36,333 --> 01:30:38,532
Speaker 2: pulling out because I always let busses pull out, Yeah,

1993
01:30:38,532 --> 01:30:40,692
Speaker 2: one d percent always let them out, pull out, definitely,

1994
01:30:40,812 --> 01:30:42,893
Speaker 2: and nearly all of them give me the you know,

1995
01:30:42,973 --> 01:30:44,732
Speaker 2: the flashing emergency lights of thank you.

1996
01:30:44,893 --> 01:30:46,772
Speaker 4: And aren't they good on doing that? That's why you

1997
01:30:46,853 --> 01:30:48,572
Speaker 4: let them out because they're always so courteous.

1998
01:30:48,572 --> 01:30:50,572
Speaker 3: They always give the wee hazard light flash.

1999
01:30:50,893 --> 01:30:51,492
Speaker 5: But I love that.

2000
01:30:51,772 --> 01:30:53,532
Speaker 2: But then every now and then one doesn't, so I

2001
01:30:53,692 --> 01:30:56,133
Speaker 2: just go full vigilante and just drive into the back

2002
01:30:56,173 --> 01:30:56,412
Speaker 2: of them.

2003
01:30:57,612 --> 01:30:59,852
Speaker 3: One hundred and eighty ten eighty is another to cool.

2004
01:31:00,093 --> 01:31:01,772
Speaker 3: It is twenty four past three.

2005
01:31:05,572 --> 01:31:08,293
Speaker 5: Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons cool.

2006
01:31:09,853 --> 01:31:12,692
Speaker 3: On News Talks'd be twenty seven past three, So we

2007
01:31:12,812 --> 01:31:15,172
Speaker 3: talk about gray areas of the road rules.

2008
01:31:15,652 --> 01:31:17,572
Speaker 2: Driver a brand new Bentley and let the other driver

2009
01:31:17,692 --> 01:31:20,372
Speaker 2: decide if the lawyers can beat yours if there is

2010
01:31:20,412 --> 01:31:22,772
Speaker 2: a crash. I wonder if people with flash of cars

2011
01:31:24,572 --> 01:31:27,452
Speaker 2: are treated with more respect, you know, right through the

2012
01:31:27,572 --> 01:31:30,412
Speaker 2: punishing COVID lockdowns. I'd come into work every day and

2013
01:31:30,452 --> 01:31:34,213
Speaker 2: I'd park beside my Costkings vehicle at the time. I

2014
01:31:34,213 --> 01:31:37,333
Speaker 2: think it was a Rolls Royce Wraith Yep. Nice and

2015
01:31:37,973 --> 01:31:41,333
Speaker 2: there was just more pressure in the parking because you know,

2016
01:31:41,692 --> 01:31:42,333
Speaker 2: why did you do it?

2017
01:31:42,572 --> 01:31:42,692
Speaker 6: Well?

2018
01:31:42,732 --> 01:31:45,253
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm like, I was parking beside your car, Tyler,

2019
01:31:45,732 --> 01:31:49,012
Speaker 2: then scrape it up. No worries that that's what's happened

2020
01:31:49,013 --> 01:31:52,053
Speaker 2: to it. The truth comes down, now, wouldn't that. But

2021
01:31:52,333 --> 01:31:56,572
Speaker 2: it flows out when the car you're pulling up beside,

2022
01:31:56,692 --> 01:31:59,013
Speaker 2: or you know, you just think that the stakes are

2023
01:31:59,053 --> 01:32:01,412
Speaker 2: just a bit higher. Yeah, but do you think about that?

2024
01:32:01,652 --> 01:32:04,612
Speaker 4: Or I would argue that if a Bentley's coming towards me,

2025
01:32:04,692 --> 01:32:07,452
Speaker 4: I think, buggy, you you've got a Bentley. I'm not

2026
01:32:07,532 --> 01:32:09,572
Speaker 4: gonna I'm not going to yield to you, even if

2027
01:32:09,612 --> 01:32:11,093
Speaker 4: it cost me a fortune and bankrupts me.

2028
01:32:11,572 --> 01:32:16,812
Speaker 2: Well, Israel Adisagia. He drives a McLaren Yeah around Auckland.

2029
01:32:17,013 --> 01:32:18,372
Speaker 2: Very cool car, very cool.

2030
01:32:18,452 --> 01:32:18,652
Speaker 6: Yeah.

2031
01:32:18,692 --> 01:32:19,492
Speaker 3: I wouldn't hit that guy.

2032
01:32:19,492 --> 01:32:21,372
Speaker 2: I've seen him a few times because it would.

2033
01:32:21,173 --> 01:32:23,173
Speaker 3: Cost me money, just because that's quite a good fighter.

2034
01:32:23,213 --> 01:32:24,133
Speaker 2: That's a double threat, isn't it.

2035
01:32:24,293 --> 01:32:25,812
Speaker 3: That is a double threat. I don't want to be

2036
01:32:25,853 --> 01:32:26,812
Speaker 3: knocked out by that fellow.

2037
01:32:27,173 --> 01:32:30,412
Speaker 2: But you know, I've driven past him before and you're

2038
01:32:30,452 --> 01:32:32,412
Speaker 2: just a little bit more careful with a car that's

2039
01:32:32,452 --> 01:32:33,972
Speaker 2: worth three hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

2040
01:32:34,053 --> 01:32:36,892
Speaker 3: Yeah, funny that, yeah, John, How are you.

2041
01:32:38,893 --> 01:32:38,973
Speaker 19: Hi?

2042
01:32:39,093 --> 01:32:39,333
Speaker 8: Guys?

2043
01:32:39,492 --> 01:32:39,652
Speaker 5: Yeah?

2044
01:32:39,732 --> 01:32:39,892
Speaker 6: Good.

2045
01:32:40,893 --> 01:32:44,412
Speaker 24: Just going back to that that giving way when cars

2046
01:32:44,412 --> 01:32:47,093
Speaker 24: are packed on either side of the road. I get

2047
01:32:47,133 --> 01:32:51,572
Speaker 24: infuriated because I drive home on two roads where cars

2048
01:32:51,612 --> 01:32:54,333
Speaker 24: are parked on either side. I live in Auckland, and

2049
01:32:54,452 --> 01:32:56,932
Speaker 24: that's crowded. Yeah, but there is no need for anyone

2050
01:32:57,013 --> 01:32:59,652
Speaker 24: to give way, right. There is plenty of room on

2051
01:32:59,692 --> 01:33:02,612
Speaker 24: the road, but people insist on driving with the middle

2052
01:33:02,652 --> 01:33:04,692
Speaker 24: of their bonnet down the center line, giving a two

2053
01:33:04,772 --> 01:33:07,372
Speaker 24: meter gap between the cars parked on the side of

2054
01:33:07,412 --> 01:33:07,732
Speaker 24: the road.

2055
01:33:07,853 --> 01:33:09,053
Speaker 7: And if people just.

2056
01:33:09,133 --> 01:33:13,013
Speaker 24: Had an awareness of space and had this, I don't know,

2057
01:33:13,973 --> 01:33:17,612
Speaker 24: you know, just how wide is your vehicle. How close

2058
01:33:17,652 --> 01:33:19,173
Speaker 24: can you get? You can do it when you park.

2059
01:33:19,412 --> 01:33:21,173
Speaker 24: You don't have to do that at fifty k's. You

2060
01:33:21,253 --> 01:33:23,812
Speaker 24: can do that thirty k's and it keeps everything moving.

2061
01:33:23,893 --> 01:33:26,972
Speaker 24: And I just just go, come on this room. There's

2062
01:33:27,013 --> 01:33:28,732
Speaker 24: plenty of room. You don't need to drive there.

2063
01:33:28,772 --> 01:33:29,973
Speaker 7: And that that drives me.

2064
01:33:30,093 --> 01:33:32,492
Speaker 2: Nuts, I think, right, John, I think I think a

2065
01:33:32,532 --> 01:33:35,333
Speaker 2: lot of the worst driving is overly timid driving. Yeah,

2066
01:33:36,412 --> 01:33:39,333
Speaker 2: like people people that don't really know so they sort

2067
01:33:39,372 --> 01:33:40,852
Speaker 2: of they sort of numpedy around.

2068
01:33:41,812 --> 01:33:48,012
Speaker 24: And look, that's in my vocabulary. Everyone's a numbty. I'm

2069
01:33:48,053 --> 01:33:50,092
Speaker 24: quite good at talking to the windscreen when I'm driving.

2070
01:33:51,173 --> 01:33:54,213
Speaker 24: Wind screen and I have quite a good conversation. Yeah,

2071
01:33:54,652 --> 01:33:58,692
Speaker 24: And you know, and also something else, I discovered that

2072
01:33:59,173 --> 01:34:01,812
Speaker 24: when we get in our cars, our personal space gets

2073
01:34:01,893 --> 01:34:04,612
Speaker 24: a whole lot bigger. Right, So we have our personal

2074
01:34:04,652 --> 01:34:06,572
Speaker 24: space we don't like people getting with and you know,

2075
01:34:06,572 --> 01:34:09,052
Speaker 24: when we're having a conversation, we probably say meter apart,

2076
01:34:09,372 --> 01:34:11,213
Speaker 24: and all of a sudden it gets bigger than around

2077
01:34:11,253 --> 01:34:14,732
Speaker 24: our car. And you know, and that's I think that's

2078
01:34:14,772 --> 01:34:17,053
Speaker 24: why we have a tendency to get angry on the road.

2079
01:34:17,333 --> 01:34:20,852
Speaker 24: We feel our personal space has been invited, invaded. But look,

2080
01:34:20,933 --> 01:34:23,973
Speaker 24: as I've got older, I let people. I let them go,

2081
01:34:24,532 --> 01:34:26,452
Speaker 24: and you know what, what goes around comes around. I

2082
01:34:26,492 --> 01:34:29,932
Speaker 24: really believe that, and people let me. But I've got

2083
01:34:29,973 --> 01:34:32,652
Speaker 24: a certain thing for people like you saying flash cars

2084
01:34:32,652 --> 01:34:34,532
Speaker 24: and that sort of thing. And I thought, I bet

2085
01:34:34,612 --> 01:34:37,492
Speaker 24: he won't let me in if it's a Toyota or Honda.

2086
01:34:37,532 --> 01:34:38,173
Speaker 7: They're going to let me.

2087
01:34:38,532 --> 01:34:41,013
Speaker 24: If it's a Porsche, I ain't getting in there.

2088
01:34:41,133 --> 01:34:41,612
Speaker 3: Every time.

2089
01:34:43,293 --> 01:34:45,933
Speaker 2: I think there's been a study that's showing that. I

2090
01:34:45,973 --> 01:34:48,612
Speaker 2: think I read a study at some point that that's

2091
01:34:48,612 --> 01:34:51,612
Speaker 2: showing that. But yeah, I'm with John. I let people

2092
01:34:52,013 --> 01:34:53,572
Speaker 2: pass because it's the right thing to do.

2093
01:34:54,093 --> 01:34:54,532
Speaker 6: And you don't.

2094
01:34:54,612 --> 01:34:56,732
Speaker 2: You don't need to expect thank you for it. You

2095
01:34:56,772 --> 01:34:59,612
Speaker 2: didn't do it for the for the wave. You know,

2096
01:35:00,013 --> 01:35:01,812
Speaker 2: you didn't do it that. And look, you don't know

2097
01:35:02,213 --> 01:35:04,652
Speaker 2: why they didn't wave. Maybe they don't have hands, you know,

2098
01:35:04,692 --> 01:35:07,652
Speaker 2: maybe they've only got one hand. I mean, I do

2099
01:35:07,772 --> 01:35:09,293
Speaker 2: do it for the way, but if they've got no hands,

2100
01:35:09,333 --> 01:35:10,932
Speaker 2: then I got you're furious at someone for the rest

2101
01:35:10,933 --> 01:35:12,452
Speaker 2: of the day because they didn't wave.

2102
01:35:12,612 --> 01:35:15,052
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they might have not had heads turns.

2103
01:35:14,893 --> 01:35:16,572
Speaker 2: Out on turns out the dude only had one hand.

2104

01:38:02,652 --> 01:38:04,133
Speaker 2: That's what yami kids, Eston Martin.

2158
01:38:04,173 --> 01:38:05,973
Speaker 4: I'm just having a look at a couple on trade me.

2159
01:38:06,133 --> 01:38:08,052
Speaker 4: So there's one going for four hundred and fifteen thousand

2160
01:38:08,093 --> 01:38:09,732
Speaker 4: dollars on this one.

2161
01:38:09,812 --> 01:38:12,652
Speaker 2: This one's a good deal. Four hundred ninety eight thousand dollars. Yeah,

2162
01:38:12,692 --> 01:38:14,213
Speaker 2: there you go. We'll put a bit.

2163
01:38:14,213 --> 01:38:14,492
Speaker 6: In for you.

2164
01:38:15,253 --> 01:38:18,452
Speaker 2: Sacrifices as I sacrifices I've made for my kids. At

2165
01:38:18,532 --> 01:38:22,053
Speaker 2: least they could do exactly one of them's eighteen. I

2166
01:38:22,173 --> 01:38:23,292
Speaker 2: expect that BOS twenty.

2167
01:38:23,093 --> 01:38:25,333
Speaker 4: First spoken, Well, all right, one hundred and eighty ten

2168
01:38:25,372 --> 01:38:26,572
Speaker 4: eighty to number a call, get.

2169
01:38:26,452 --> 01:38:29,932
Speaker 7: A pool, Good a fellows, how are.

2170
01:38:29,933 --> 01:38:32,053
Speaker 3: You very good? What's your gray area that you think

2171
01:38:32,053 --> 01:38:32,892
Speaker 3: people should know about.

2172
01:38:34,093 --> 01:38:37,732
Speaker 20: Oh mate, this one's a river, So you can't pick

2173
01:38:37,812 --> 01:38:40,053
Speaker 20: up your phone when you're driving and talk on it. Right,

2174
01:38:43,053 --> 01:38:45,572
Speaker 20: But if you've got to breathallize interlocker in your vehicle

2175
01:38:45,612 --> 01:38:48,253
Speaker 20: that goes off every ten minutes when you're driving, you've

2176
01:38:48,293 --> 01:38:49,652
Speaker 20: got to pick that up and blowing it.

2177
01:38:51,452 --> 01:38:54,173
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, that'd be interesting. Can you be pinged for

2178
01:38:54,253 --> 01:38:57,333
Speaker 2: blowing and your breathalyzer? It's a good point. There is

2179
01:38:57,372 --> 01:38:59,333
Speaker 2: a distraction. How often does that go off, Paul?

2180
01:38:59,572 --> 01:39:00,293
Speaker 5: Did you say.

2181
01:39:01,973 --> 01:39:02,932
Speaker 15: Every ten minutes?

2182
01:39:03,213 --> 01:39:06,013
Speaker 19: Really from a friend's point of view, Yeah, I.

2183
01:39:06,133 --> 01:39:08,572
Speaker 2: Thought they were just for startup, but is that in

2184
01:39:08,652 --> 01:39:10,932
Speaker 2: this case you start slamming a bottle of vodka while

2185
01:39:10,933 --> 01:39:11,852
Speaker 2: you're driving along the road.

2186
01:39:13,053 --> 01:39:16,053
Speaker 20: Well, as you mentioned earlier on, it's it's okay to

2187
01:39:16,133 --> 01:39:19,253
Speaker 20: grab a grab a road as such and get on

2188
01:39:19,372 --> 01:39:21,772
Speaker 20: with it, but not when you've got one of these on.

2189
01:39:21,933 --> 01:39:23,053
Speaker 10: No, so you've got to.

2190
01:39:23,053 --> 01:39:25,972
Speaker 20: Blow to start your vehicle. Yeah, and then it goes

2191
01:39:26,013 --> 01:39:30,492
Speaker 20: off around every ten minutes. Yeah, and you've got to

2192
01:39:30,532 --> 01:39:33,732
Speaker 20: keep blowing it and be clear otherwise your toast and

2193
01:39:33,812 --> 01:39:37,412
Speaker 20: it's another ninety bucks to unlock it, and then you

2194
01:39:37,572 --> 01:39:40,132
Speaker 20: are interlock time starts from scratch.

2195
01:39:40,652 --> 01:39:43,772
Speaker 2: Wow, so you're add and talking on a banana at

2196
01:39:43,772 --> 01:39:45,532
Speaker 2: the same time, and things get very great.

2197
01:39:45,973 --> 01:39:48,133
Speaker 3: That's a straight tasering holding.

2198
01:39:47,853 --> 01:39:49,452
Speaker 2: A banana to your ear and pretending to talk into

2199
01:39:49,452 --> 01:39:51,692
Speaker 2: a phone. And someone who said just before that's an

2200
01:39:51,692 --> 01:39:53,852
Speaker 2: interesting one. Thanks to you, call Paul. So what happens?

2201
01:39:53,893 --> 01:39:55,492
Speaker 2: It must watch? Does it give you a countdown?

2202
01:39:56,053 --> 01:39:58,133
Speaker 4: You've got twenty seconds to blow into this or else

2203
01:39:58,133 --> 01:39:59,293
Speaker 4: we're going to shut your vehicle down.

2204
01:40:00,732 --> 01:40:02,612
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I said, someone saying that's the girls version

2205
01:40:02,652 --> 01:40:04,293
Speaker 2: of the Eston Martin that the guy, So that guy's

2206
01:40:04,372 --> 01:40:07,812
Speaker 2: rung in and said he was driving that anyway.

2207
01:40:08,333 --> 01:40:10,652
Speaker 3: Currently my costin drives a DBX as well, So maybe

2208
01:40:10,853 --> 01:40:11,972
Speaker 3: that was that a text from Mike?

2209
01:40:12,093 --> 01:40:12,213
Speaker 8: Was it?

2210
01:40:12,652 --> 01:40:12,932
Speaker 2: Maybe?

2211
01:40:13,173 --> 01:40:13,372
Speaker 6: Yeah?

2212
01:40:13,612 --> 01:40:15,173
Speaker 2: Would he be courteous on the road. I think he'd

2213
01:40:15,213 --> 01:40:17,973
Speaker 2: be pretty courteous on the road. Yeah, I don't know.

2214
01:40:18,133 --> 01:40:21,852
Speaker 2: You park next to him? Yeah, I've never seen him

2215
01:40:22,093 --> 01:40:24,572
Speaker 2: be uncurteous, but he's a good driver. He's in before

2216
01:40:24,612 --> 01:40:27,492
Speaker 2: I arrive and out seconds after a show, so I

2217
01:40:27,532 --> 01:40:28,652
Speaker 2: don't really see him on the roads.

2218
01:40:29,492 --> 01:40:31,572
Speaker 4: Oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number to call.

2219
01:40:31,652 --> 01:40:33,812
Speaker 4: Nine two ninety two is the text number. What are

2220
01:40:33,812 --> 01:40:37,532
Speaker 4: the great areas of the road rules? This one here

2221
01:40:37,612 --> 01:40:40,692
Speaker 4: is interesting. What is it worth Ford Ranger drivers? Is

2222
01:40:40,772 --> 01:40:42,772
Speaker 4: there a sticker on the sun visor telling them they

2223
01:40:42,772 --> 01:40:45,372
Speaker 4: don't have to give way when the ad comes on

2224
01:40:45,452 --> 01:40:48,013
Speaker 4: the telly with the guy saying ranger every time they

2225
01:40:48,093 --> 01:40:50,852
Speaker 4: see one. I substitute it with a word that rhymes

2226
01:40:50,933 --> 01:40:52,692
Speaker 4: with bankers. Seems appropriate from Henry.

2227
01:40:52,812 --> 01:40:54,173
Speaker 2: See, I've got a theory in this because we hear

2228
01:40:54,213 --> 01:40:56,652
Speaker 2: a lot about anti a lot of anti Ford Ranger

2229
01:40:56,732 --> 01:40:59,093
Speaker 2: rhetoric these days. But I think it's just because it's

2230
01:40:59,173 --> 01:41:00,932
Speaker 2: been the number one car for so long. I don't

2231
01:41:00,933 --> 01:41:02,572
Speaker 2: know if it still is, but so long, there's so

2232
01:41:02,732 --> 01:41:07,492
Speaker 2: many Ford Rangers on the road that just by pure

2233
01:41:07,612 --> 01:41:11,412
Speaker 2: I mean it'sartistic anomy. They're involved in more dicky to behavior. Yeah,

2234
01:41:11,772 --> 01:41:13,412
Speaker 2: just because you see so many of them there everywhere,

2235
01:41:13,692 --> 01:41:17,732
Speaker 2: the head ratio, I mean, the ranger, ad ranger, rang, rang, Rangel,

2236
01:41:17,812 --> 01:41:20,053
Speaker 2: they're everywhere. It's pure mathematics, though, isn't it.

2237
01:41:20,133 --> 01:41:21,652
Speaker 4: Because there's a number of dick kids on the road

2238
01:41:21,853 --> 01:41:23,532
Speaker 4: and there's a lot of ranges, so that it would

2239
01:41:23,532 --> 01:41:25,652
Speaker 4: equate to there's going to be some dickids driving ranges.

2240
01:41:25,812 --> 01:41:27,973
Speaker 2: You guys, are wrong, says amb But I drive a

2241
01:41:28,053 --> 01:41:30,652
Speaker 2: range driver and always give way to others or merge

2242
01:41:30,692 --> 01:41:32,452
Speaker 2: like a zip. I do agree with the current caller

2243
01:41:32,492 --> 01:41:35,492
Speaker 2: about people giving way unnecessarily on two way roads. It's

2244
01:41:35,532 --> 01:41:38,732
Speaker 2: a problem I love in christ Church and a lot

2245
01:41:38,732 --> 01:41:40,612
Speaker 2: of people seem to lack spatial awareness.

2246
01:41:40,732 --> 01:41:43,093
Speaker 4: Yeah, fair enough to beautiful cars, range rovers oh e

2247
01:41:43,093 --> 01:41:44,852
Speaker 4: one hundred and eighty ten eighty is and number to

2248
01:41:44,893 --> 01:41:46,492
Speaker 4: call coming up. There seems to be a lot of

2249
01:41:46,532 --> 01:41:49,253
Speaker 4: heat for the way that contabrians are driving. There's another

2250
01:41:49,333 --> 01:41:51,772
Speaker 4: text here that really lays into christ Church drivers, so

2251
01:41:51,812 --> 01:41:54,372
Speaker 4: we'll get to that next. It is twenty to four.

2252
01:41:54,572 --> 01:41:58,772
Speaker 2: Ah christ Chitch drivers the angriest drivers in New Zealand.

2253
01:41:58,853 --> 01:42:00,852
Speaker 2: Do I seem like an angry driver to year?

2254
01:42:00,933 --> 01:42:01,093
Speaker 8: Yes?

2255
01:42:01,133 --> 01:42:03,692
Speaker 2: You do well then yes, but in my life and

2256
01:42:03,893 --> 01:42:06,572
Speaker 2: look this is this is sort of just anecdotal, but

2257
01:42:07,013 --> 01:42:11,412
Speaker 2: the two biggest road range cidents of been and the

2258
01:42:11,452 --> 01:42:13,372
Speaker 2: receiving end on have both been in christ Church. We

2259
01:42:13,492 --> 01:42:14,492
Speaker 2: just don't like to muck around.

2260
01:42:16,772 --> 01:42:20,333
Speaker 1: Matt Heath Taylor Adams taking your calls on eight hundred

2261
01:42:20,333 --> 01:42:22,892
Speaker 1: and eighty ten eighty. It's Mad Heath and Taylor Adams

2262
01:42:23,053 --> 01:42:24,452
Speaker 1: Afternoons News talks.

2263
01:42:24,652 --> 01:42:26,972
Speaker 4: Be very good afternoon to you. We are talking about

2264
01:42:26,973 --> 01:42:30,572
Speaker 4: the gray areas of the road rules. Oh eight hundred

2265
01:42:30,612 --> 01:42:33,253
Speaker 4: eighty ten eighty is the number to call now, menship before.

2266
01:42:33,253 --> 01:42:35,812
Speaker 4: There's been so many tips coming through there. There's quite

2267
01:42:35,853 --> 01:42:39,772
Speaker 4: a bit of pushback on the way that contabrians drive here.

2268
01:42:39,853 --> 01:42:42,772
Speaker 4: It is drivers that don't merge like a zip, guys,

2269
01:42:42,893 --> 01:42:45,492
Speaker 4: I e go one for one. At the most infuriating

2270
01:42:45,572 --> 01:42:50,173
Speaker 4: to me, christ chitch drivers are absolutely appalling. It is

2271
01:42:50,213 --> 01:42:52,572
Speaker 4: actually the law that you're meant to merge like a zip.

2272
01:42:53,692 --> 01:42:55,933
Speaker 4: Some people treat it as a suggestion. Look forward to

2273
01:42:56,053 --> 01:42:59,612
Speaker 4: hearing your thoughts. Yes, christ chitch drivers are some of

2274
01:42:59,612 --> 01:43:00,452
Speaker 4: the worst in the country.

2275
01:43:00,452 --> 01:43:01,092
Speaker 2: From Nick.

2276
01:43:03,253 --> 01:43:06,972
Speaker 3: Nick Nick nickou doesn't say, just says thanks from Nick

2277
01:43:07,213 --> 01:43:09,612
Speaker 3: Nick from christ Church. Yeah, isn't there a quite a

2278
01:43:09,612 --> 01:43:10,732
Speaker 3: well known nick from christ Church?

2279
01:43:11,013 --> 01:43:11,492
Speaker 2: I think so?

2280
01:43:11,812 --> 01:43:14,492
Speaker 3: Yeah, this one here is a good one.

2281
01:43:14,532 --> 01:43:16,492
Speaker 2: The biggest thing that frustrates me is when people stop

2282
01:43:16,572 --> 01:43:18,372
Speaker 2: in the middle of the road to let another car

2283
01:43:18,532 --> 01:43:21,293
Speaker 2: out when there's nothing behind them at all.

2284
01:43:21,812 --> 01:43:21,972
Speaker 6: Yeah.

2285
01:43:22,053 --> 01:43:24,013
Speaker 2: That's a weird one, isn't it. There's also this thing

2286
01:43:24,093 --> 01:43:25,652
Speaker 2: that happens on the roads that kind of bugs me

2287
01:43:25,692 --> 01:43:28,532
Speaker 2: when people be overly friendly to the point where it's confusing.

2288
01:43:28,812 --> 01:43:31,013
Speaker 2: They've got absolute right of way and they signal you

2289
01:43:31,133 --> 01:43:33,852
Speaker 2: to go, and you're like, no, this is confusing because

2290
01:43:33,853 --> 01:43:35,213
Speaker 2: I know that you've got right of way, so I

2291
01:43:35,293 --> 01:43:37,053
Speaker 2: can't really go, and you end up in this kind

2292
01:43:37,053 --> 01:43:40,852
Speaker 2: of jettery standoff and then you're both signaling to each other.

2293
01:43:41,213 --> 01:43:44,012
Speaker 2: And it's often someone that doesn't know the rules around

2294
01:43:44,253 --> 01:43:47,372
Speaker 2: stop signs and give way signs, and they're like, oh,

2295
01:43:47,492 --> 01:43:49,213
Speaker 2: you just go, and you're like, no, but I can't.

2296
01:43:49,652 --> 01:43:51,492
Speaker 2: I can't pull out because you might just remember it

2297
01:43:51,612 --> 01:43:53,772
Speaker 2: last minute the road rules and pull out exactly. So

2298
01:43:53,853 --> 01:43:56,333
Speaker 2: sometimes it's good just to stick to the rules as

2299
01:43:56,492 --> 01:43:57,132
Speaker 2: they are.

2300
01:43:57,253 --> 01:43:59,772
Speaker 3: Yeah, because what do they say, be predictable, not polite,

2301
01:43:59,812 --> 01:44:01,492
Speaker 3: and there's a lot of truth to that on our roads.

2302
01:44:02,213 --> 01:44:03,093
Speaker 2: Joe, how are you?

2303
01:44:04,173 --> 01:44:05,133
Speaker 22: Hey, you guys, how's it going?

2304
01:44:05,652 --> 01:44:07,213
Speaker 2: Very good? What's your gray area?

2305
01:44:08,692 --> 01:44:12,772
Speaker 22: My great area is just before you get onto the motorway,

2306
01:44:12,853 --> 01:44:15,772
Speaker 22: there's like them two to three four lanes sometimes, but

2307
01:44:16,213 --> 01:44:18,213
Speaker 22: there are those traffic lights that they have, but the

2308
01:44:18,333 --> 01:44:21,933
Speaker 22: sign seeds one vehicle peer green each lane, So we

2309
01:44:22,013 --> 01:44:25,213
Speaker 22: all understand that green light things go belight, you need stop.

2310
01:44:25,452 --> 01:44:29,053
Speaker 22: But due to the sign. I'm for one. I've got

2311
01:44:29,053 --> 01:44:31,253
Speaker 22: it on the fence because the sign seeds one vehicle

2312
01:44:31,253 --> 01:44:35,293
Speaker 22: called pere green each lane, and sometimes there's like five lights.

2313
01:44:36,093 --> 01:44:38,692
Speaker 22: So does that mean five cars for each lane can

2314
01:44:38,772 --> 01:44:39,932
Speaker 22: go on the green signal?

2315
01:44:40,412 --> 01:44:43,492
Speaker 4: Or I've always read it as one for one because

2316
01:44:43,492 --> 01:44:45,772
Speaker 4: the old green light going onto the motorway doesn't stay

2317
01:44:45,933 --> 01:44:46,692
Speaker 4: green for long.

2318
01:44:46,772 --> 01:44:47,572
Speaker 2: But I get your points.

2319
01:44:47,572 --> 01:44:49,692
Speaker 4: There's a lot of people just try and squeeze two

2320
01:44:49,772 --> 01:44:54,333
Speaker 4: cars through or three cars through. And I would never

2321
01:44:54,412 --> 01:44:57,812
Speaker 4: do that myself, but I'm not gonna get angry at

2322
01:44:57,853 --> 01:44:59,452
Speaker 4: somebody that does that, you know what I mean. If

2323
01:44:59,492 --> 01:45:02,133
Speaker 4: they want to sneak through and they're not causing any

2324
01:45:02,412 --> 01:45:05,213
Speaker 4: any you know, craziness on the road, go for it.

2325
01:45:06,333 --> 01:45:09,053
Speaker 22: Yeah, I'm all for it. But yeah, they know a

2326
01:45:09,093 --> 01:45:11,973
Speaker 22: few people. There's few people with the odd finger, you

2327
01:45:12,053 --> 01:45:12,852
Speaker 22: know when from one.

2328
01:45:15,893 --> 01:45:17,612
Speaker 13: So yeah, yeah, it.

2329
01:45:17,692 --> 01:45:20,253
Speaker 4: Does confuse a lot of people, the old green light

2330
01:45:20,333 --> 01:45:22,852
Speaker 4: going into the motorway. Yeah, but doesn't it normally say

2331
01:45:23,093 --> 01:45:24,372
Speaker 4: one one at a time?

2332
01:45:24,692 --> 01:45:24,852
Speaker 6: Yeah?

2333
01:45:24,973 --> 01:45:26,892
Speaker 4: I thought it was one per lane. So you got

2334
01:45:26,933 --> 01:45:29,932
Speaker 4: two lanes going into it, you've got the two green lights. Yeah, yeah,

2335
01:45:29,973 --> 01:45:31,093
Speaker 4: so it's one per lane, isn't it.

2336
01:45:31,692 --> 01:45:31,852
Speaker 17: Yeah?

2337
01:45:31,893 --> 01:45:34,293
Speaker 2: I think so, Yeah, that's how I was taking it.

2338
01:45:34,333 --> 01:45:35,852
Speaker 2: Maybe I've been breaking the law all the time. I

2339
01:45:35,893 --> 01:45:37,253
Speaker 2: mean the idea is just to break it up so

2340
01:45:37,333 --> 01:45:39,253
Speaker 2: there's there's gaps in the traffic, right, yes.

2341
01:45:39,213 --> 01:45:42,333
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Oh eight hundred and eighteen eighty is the

2342
01:45:42,492 --> 01:45:44,572
Speaker 4: number to call Mac.

2343
01:45:45,692 --> 01:45:46,053
Speaker 2: How are you?

2344
01:45:46,213 --> 01:45:46,372
Speaker 20: Yeah?

2345
01:45:46,452 --> 01:45:51,972
Speaker 8: Good? Matt and Tyler. Interesting topic. I'd have to ask

2346
01:45:52,053 --> 01:45:56,093
Speaker 8: you both, where does common sense coming to everything you've said?

2347
01:45:56,612 --> 01:45:59,652
Speaker 8: And I don't have to say that's seriously lacking. If

2348
01:45:59,732 --> 01:46:03,732
Speaker 8: you're going down a narrow road or up a narrow road,

2349
01:46:04,612 --> 01:46:06,772
Speaker 8: then you have to be aware of the vehicle coming

2350
01:46:06,853 --> 01:46:11,812
Speaker 8: towards you, and surely, goodness you would have a common

2351
01:46:11,893 --> 01:46:14,892
Speaker 8: sense to take a ways of action to get out

2352
01:46:14,933 --> 01:46:17,053
Speaker 8: of the way of that vehicle to allow to come

2353
01:46:17,133 --> 01:46:21,933
Speaker 8: down if you through. And this is probably one of

2354
01:46:21,973 --> 01:46:24,532
Speaker 8: the biggest problems we have at the moment in New Zealand.

2355
01:46:25,612 --> 01:46:29,053
Speaker 8: Everyone wants to have their own right away. Well, you know,

2356
01:46:29,333 --> 01:46:32,532
Speaker 8: it's Life's not like that. You have to look at

2357
01:46:32,572 --> 01:46:37,812
Speaker 8: the situation assess where can you let well, what can

2358
01:46:37,893 --> 01:46:43,532
Speaker 8: you do in a single lane situation or type parking

2359
01:46:43,652 --> 01:46:45,652
Speaker 8: situation and let someone go through?

2360
01:46:46,893 --> 01:46:47,093
Speaker 6: You know?

2361
01:46:47,492 --> 01:46:47,852
Speaker 10: It just.

2362
01:46:49,973 --> 01:46:53,053
Speaker 8: I think it's one of those things that we all

2363
01:46:53,173 --> 01:46:56,732
Speaker 8: need to take on board. Take a deep breath and

2364
01:46:57,293 --> 01:46:58,412
Speaker 8: just let things happen.

2365
01:46:58,812 --> 01:47:01,133
Speaker 2: Good on your mac. I guess that said. I guess

2366
01:47:01,173 --> 01:47:03,652
Speaker 2: that's why we're talking about it. Yeah, that's what do

2367
01:47:03,732 --> 01:47:05,772
Speaker 2: you do in that situation. I'm a person that tends

2368
01:47:05,812 --> 01:47:08,293
Speaker 2: to let people through, yep. But then what happens if

2369
01:47:08,412 --> 01:47:11,213
Speaker 2: you've got your pregnant partner in your car exactly and

2370
01:47:11,293 --> 01:47:13,612
Speaker 2: then you're just trying to drive the Friendly Way and

2371
01:47:13,692 --> 01:47:18,173
Speaker 2: you're letting five of Tyler's numpties through and you have

2372
01:47:18,253 --> 01:47:20,173
Speaker 2: to you have to force the issue. Yeah, you have

2373
01:47:20,253 --> 01:47:22,173
Speaker 2: to go, well, look, I need to get through here.

2374
01:47:22,732 --> 01:47:24,812
Speaker 2: I can't. It's not the day to drive the Friendly Way.

2375
01:47:25,013 --> 01:47:25,213
Speaker 13: Yep.

2376
01:47:25,372 --> 01:47:26,812
Speaker 2: I get I go to get this. I've got to

2377
01:47:26,812 --> 01:47:28,652
Speaker 2: get this person to the hospital. I've gotta get I

01:47:28,772 --> 01:47:29,972

01:47:34,812 --> 01:47:35,213
Speaker 4: for that.

2382
01:47:35,452 --> 01:47:37,692
Speaker 3: Will take one more call before we're going to place

2383
01:47:37,812 --> 01:47:38,573
Speaker 3: some messages.

2384
01:47:39,452 --> 01:47:41,572
Speaker 2: Andrew, how are you.

2385
01:47:44,253 --> 01:47:46,333
Speaker 11: I've got a good story from my wife, who used

2386
01:47:46,333 --> 01:47:49,333
Speaker 11: to be a driving instructive and now she's my office lady.

2387
01:47:50,893 --> 01:47:54,933
Speaker 11: She was at a interstinction where the main road was.

2388
01:47:55,692 --> 01:47:59,293
Speaker 11: She was being controlled by a sign or a giveaway sign,

2389
01:47:59,452 --> 01:48:03,053
Speaker 11: as was the opposite spacing traffic on the main road

2390
01:48:03,173 --> 01:48:06,053
Speaker 11: going straight through, which happens to have what they call

2391
01:48:06,133 --> 01:48:09,253
Speaker 11: a flushed median for riding down the middle of the

2392
01:48:09,333 --> 01:48:11,852
Speaker 11: road so they can send right into the side street

2393
01:48:11,893 --> 01:48:13,692
Speaker 11: that she was trying to pull out of. Well, her

2394
01:48:13,772 --> 01:48:19,412
Speaker 11: student was and there was no one turning right, but

2395
01:48:19,652 --> 01:48:23,812
Speaker 11: a police officer who was going straight through between these

2396
01:48:23,853 --> 01:48:28,612
Speaker 11: two opposing the ways of science, whichever they were, came

2397
01:48:28,652 --> 01:48:30,772
Speaker 11: to a complete stop and try to wave to her

2398
01:48:30,893 --> 01:48:35,772
Speaker 11: student in and just keeps telling your students, do not move,

2399
01:48:36,853 --> 01:48:40,892
Speaker 11: got on your wa you cannot take that gap because

2400
01:48:40,893 --> 01:48:44,772
Speaker 11: if you do that during your driver's test, you will

2401
01:48:44,812 --> 01:48:49,732
Speaker 11: be failed. And the cop just sat there forever, trying

2402
01:48:49,812 --> 01:48:52,852
Speaker 11: to think he was being courteous, trying to wave this

2403
01:48:53,053 --> 01:48:54,733
Speaker 11: young kid into the fluid.

2404
01:48:55,933 --> 01:48:59,412
Speaker 19: Was not interesting traffic. And my wife's like, I think

2405
01:48:59,452 --> 01:49:01,013
Speaker 19: she had brake pedals as well. I think she just

2406
01:49:01,093 --> 01:49:04,932
Speaker 19: kept we are not going.

2407
01:49:05,492 --> 01:49:09,852
Speaker 2: Where where have those driving car has gone? That used

2408
01:49:09,853 --> 01:49:10,852
Speaker 2: to have two steering wheels?

2409
01:49:11,772 --> 01:49:14,092
Speaker 19: That, yeah, I don't think they've ever I don't remember

2410
01:49:14,173 --> 01:49:15,133
Speaker 19: ever seeing those here.

2411
01:49:15,213 --> 01:49:17,052
Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm on TV.

2412
01:49:17,532 --> 01:49:21,932
Speaker 19: Pedals engineered by a specialist up the line and they

2413
01:49:22,013 --> 01:49:25,093
Speaker 19: were incredible, whereas the first step her son, who was

2414
01:49:25,133 --> 01:49:28,972
Speaker 19: a mechanic, installed those here that she imported from the UK.

2415
01:49:29,173 --> 01:49:32,253
Speaker 2: But I could, God, if I was a driving instructor

2416
01:49:32,293 --> 01:49:34,892
Speaker 2: road what those pedals says for sure. Hey, I've got

2417
01:49:34,933 --> 01:49:36,932
Speaker 2: a question for you, Andrew. You said she was your

2418
01:49:37,013 --> 01:49:42,572
Speaker 2: driving instructor, and now she's okay, right right? I thought

2419
01:49:42,612 --> 01:49:45,293
Speaker 2: I thought, I thought love love might have happened behind

2420
01:49:45,372 --> 01:49:46,813
Speaker 2: the learner.

2421
01:49:48,213 --> 01:49:49,973
Speaker 19: On the road and it was off the road, so

2422
01:49:50,133 --> 01:49:51,972
Speaker 19: she just started focusing on my business.

2423
01:49:52,372 --> 01:49:54,612
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, but that is I mean, even if a

2424
01:49:54,692 --> 01:49:56,973
Speaker 4: police officer does that, Andrew and goes back to be

2425
01:49:57,093 --> 01:49:59,852
Speaker 4: predictable not polite. The old cop was a lovely cop

2426
01:49:59,893 --> 01:50:01,253
Speaker 4: by the sounds of it, and said, this is a

2427
01:50:01,333 --> 01:50:02,973
Speaker 4: new driver. I'll just stop in the middle of the

2428
01:50:03,053 --> 01:50:03,892
Speaker 4: road and let them through.

2429
01:50:04,213 --> 01:50:05,892
Speaker 2: But no, I don't do that. But that's a good

2430
01:50:05,933 --> 01:50:07,412
Speaker 2: one that you just said that. I've never heard that

2431
01:50:07,452 --> 01:50:10,053
Speaker 2: same before. Be predicted, not polite. That's the thing I

2432
01:50:10,133 --> 01:50:12,173
Speaker 2: was talking about before. It's so annoying when someone's being

2433
01:50:12,333 --> 01:50:15,052
Speaker 2: overly polite, but you know that they're in the wrong

2434
01:50:15,213 --> 01:50:17,213
Speaker 2: and the system would work if they just followed the

2435
01:50:17,293 --> 01:50:19,412
Speaker 2: rules and we could all just do it. Yeah, but

2436
01:50:19,532 --> 01:50:21,572
Speaker 2: you're sitting there and there going come through, and it's

2437
01:50:21,612 --> 01:50:23,492
Speaker 2: like I'm not you know, I'm on a stop. You're

2438
01:50:23,532 --> 01:50:24,333
Speaker 2: on a good way go.

2439
01:50:24,572 --> 01:50:26,452
Speaker 4: And you can't get that angry because they've been so

2440
01:50:26,732 --> 01:50:29,412
Speaker 4: nice about it. But just do the right thing, do

2441
01:50:29,572 --> 01:50:32,053
Speaker 4: what you're meant to do on the road instead of

2442
01:50:32,093 --> 01:50:34,612
Speaker 4: being so bloody courteous. Catch is a weird thing to say.

2443
01:50:34,772 --> 01:50:38,452
Speaker 2: You can't be flashing the middle finger around for someone

2444
01:50:38,532 --> 01:50:40,692
Speaker 2: that's just being overly curtis exactly courteous.

2445
01:50:41,173 --> 01:50:43,293
Speaker 4: It is nine to four, eight hundred and eighty ten

2446
01:50:43,333 --> 01:50:45,532
Speaker 4: eighty's number to call back very shortly. You're listening to

2447
01:50:45,572 --> 01:50:46,453
Speaker 4: Matton Tyler.

2448
01:50:47,333 --> 01:50:50,692
Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues, the big trends and

2449
01:50:51,053 --> 01:50:52,012
Speaker 1: everything in between.

2450
01:50:52,253 --> 01:50:55,173
Speaker 5: Matt Heath and Tayler Adams Afternoons used talks.

2451
01:50:55,173 --> 01:50:58,532
Speaker 4: It be news talks here, b We've been talking about

2452
01:50:59,013 --> 01:51:00,892
Speaker 4: the gray areas of the road rules, and the text

2453
01:51:00,933 --> 01:51:02,733
Speaker 4: machine has absolutely exploded.

2454
01:51:02,973 --> 01:51:05,093
Speaker 2: A nine two nine two is that number? Driving with

2455
01:51:05,213 --> 01:51:09,052
Speaker 2: a dog on driver's lap? What about driving wearing large

2456
01:51:09,133 --> 01:51:12,532
Speaker 2: head shades, blocking pro filled vision? It's talking about gray

2457
01:51:12,572 --> 01:51:15,293
Speaker 2: areas of driving. Someone was talking about you're not allowed

2458
01:51:15,293 --> 01:51:16,973
Speaker 2: to drive down the road talking on a phone, but

2459
01:51:17,053 --> 01:51:18,732
Speaker 2: can you drive down the road talking on a banana.

2460
01:51:18,772 --> 01:51:21,892
Speaker 2: It's a massive loophole, massive loophole. I mean, I don't

2461
01:51:21,933 --> 01:51:23,973
Speaker 2: know if there's a rising tide of people that need

2462
01:51:24,053 --> 01:51:25,892
Speaker 2: to be talking to bananas on the way down the road.

2463
01:51:26,213 --> 01:51:27,692
Speaker 2: But if you want to, I think you can. But

2464
01:51:28,173 --> 01:51:29,333
Speaker 2: it is odd that that's legal.

2465
01:51:29,612 --> 01:51:29,812
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2466
01:51:30,013 --> 01:51:31,852
Speaker 3: The dog on the lap though, that is it's a

2467
01:51:31,893 --> 01:51:32,412
Speaker 3: bold choice.

2468
01:51:32,452 --> 01:51:34,093
Speaker 2: When has a banana become a phone if you start

2469
01:51:34,133 --> 01:51:39,532
Speaker 2: putting a headset into it. Yeah, Wellington drivers seem to

2470
01:51:39,612 --> 01:51:43,372
Speaker 2: treat all rules as open interpretation. They are all on

2471
01:51:43,612 --> 01:51:46,572
Speaker 2: the opium and pipe in Wellington. That's from Luca good times.

2472
01:51:46,612 --> 01:51:48,173
Speaker 2: A lot of people in the old school opium pipe

2473
01:51:48,253 --> 01:51:50,213
Speaker 2: having fun on the opiay, this is talking about those

2474
01:51:50,492 --> 01:51:52,972
Speaker 2: inhibitors Alkoho inhibitis and cars. You have to five minutes

2475
01:51:53,013 --> 01:51:54,973
Speaker 2: to blow on the inhibitor while driving to give you

2476
01:51:55,013 --> 01:51:56,852
Speaker 2: the time to pull over safely if you need to.

2477
01:51:57,333 --> 01:51:59,372
Speaker 2: If you turn the vehicle off before blowing, it's a

2478
01:51:59,452 --> 01:52:01,333
Speaker 2: breach and you get a month added to your time.

2479
01:52:01,772 --> 01:52:04,973
Speaker 2: Speaking for a friend. So that was that personal ring

2480
01:52:05,053 --> 01:52:07,293
Speaker 2: up performance heads and some of those inimitators you have

2481
01:52:07,372 --> 01:52:10,293
Speaker 2: to inhibitors have to blow every ten minutes yep, And

2482
01:52:10,452 --> 01:52:13,412
Speaker 2: he was he was asking, well, what's the difference between

2483
01:52:13,452 --> 01:52:16,213
Speaker 2: talking on your phone and blowing into an inhibitor. Sounds

2484
01:52:16,253 --> 01:52:18,012
Speaker 2: like you've got the opportunity to pull over and blow

2485
01:52:18,053 --> 01:52:18,293
Speaker 2: into it.

2486
01:52:18,452 --> 01:52:19,213
Speaker 3: Yeah, makes sense.

2487
01:52:19,532 --> 01:52:21,652
Speaker 4: And this one says, can you please tell your listeners

2488
01:52:21,732 --> 01:52:25,013
Speaker 4: that when they turn, they need to stay in the

2489
01:52:25,133 --> 01:52:28,372
Speaker 4: nearest lane. They don't get to choose because they are turning.

2490
01:52:28,452 --> 01:52:31,053
Speaker 4: If there are two lanes, I can turn right at

2491
01:52:31,093 --> 01:52:34,093
Speaker 4: the same time as oncoming turning left.

2492
01:52:34,853 --> 01:52:36,372
Speaker 2: Well that's just made the water. I don't even know
