News Story
Members have attended three motor vehicle accidents today. The first was a breakfast-time collision between a bus and a car on Blockhouse Bay Road, New Windsor. Fortunately the bus had no passengers, and neither the driver of the bus nor the car was badly hurt. Late afternoon there were two calls at once. The first was a car versus house in Mairangi Bay where the car left the road, crossed the garden and became embedded in the bungalow's front room. Then in May Road, Mt Roskill, there was a crash between two cars with one person seriously injured, warranting the incident being fully investigated by police. At all 3 incidents our members closed roads, put in detours or managed traffic and provided scene protection during fire service and police operations. Both Mairangi Bay and Mt Roskill events turned out long-duration jobs.
