If Te Reo is a little unfamiliar for you - upskill your driving knowledge with an awareness of our Māori language road safety signage. A warning that a school or school bus is close by. Slow down to 20km's if passing a school bus if it is parked on either side of you on the side of the road and slow down to the appropriate speed limit and less as you drive through a school/kura zone.

Kia kaha and keep up the safe driving practices everyone.
