LETTER TO EDITOR: The number of cars on the island

Dear Editor, In reply to the nameless letter “Redesigning our CBD” I would like to clarify a couple of things in this letter: Rarocars has only just taken over using this section. Very few if any trees have been cut down from this section since Herbie Pemberton had the lease in the 1990s. Almost without exception those people who complain about the number of cars on the island already have a car themselves ... I would also like to see fewer cars on the road but don’t those people who currently don’t have cars have the right to own a car? Regards, Don Carlaw Director Rarocars

Drink driving

Kare rai te aronga marokiakia e akarongo ite tuatua ate ture. Te rave nei rai.Eaa I reira te ravenga e akakore I teia. Tei runga rai iakoe no teia apinga e inu ite kava.Me kare koe e inu ite kava,akaoro ite pereo e meitaki rai te reira noou.Me inu ra ite kava,akaoro ite pereo kua apa ia koe ite ture.Eaa te ka rauka mai.E manamanata note ngutuare ete vai atura.Kare oki I akarongo ite tuatua ate ture. Our people we need to change our attitude on this issue of drinking and driving. If you know you’ve reached your limit, eat something and go home. Nearly every week there’s drink drive incidents around the island. So hopefully all is ok this weekend coming. Kia orana all.
