Truck driver says Kiwi drivers need attitude adjustment

A Kiwi truck driver is sharing heartstopping video of near-misses that he says he and his colleagues see daily, NZ Herald reports. Peter Hughes, who operates the New Zealand’s Worst Drivers Facebook page, has over 17 years on our roads. Hughes cast doubt on New Zealand’s ability to reach a zero road toll, saying that while lowered speed limits and wire dividers were “great initiatives”, the onus was on drivers to change their behaviour. Hughes was critical of the Kiwi perspective that driving was a right and not a privilege, saying our ego often outstrips our ability as drivers.
