Lineman inspects the split power pole in Station Road, Papatoetoe

Two calls at once had members at work into the wee small hours of today. Both calls were in Papatoetoe, South Auckland, both were motor vehicle accidents, both involved power poles and both brought down wires. The other similarity was that among those people involved at each incident some were taken from the scene by police. The first was in Hamilton Road where there had been a two car crash, the resulting impact apparently slamming one vehicle into a power pole. The second incident was in Station Road, a single-car crash which split the wooden pole on impact. At both venues members closed roads until power authority personnel made the scene safe.
