Hazardous islands cause havoc in Kaiwaka
The islands have been the subject of controversy on community pages.
They are already covered in tyre tread and scuff marks.
Zoey’s car is stuck on the side of the road.
Kaipara District Council (KDC) may have a legal dispute on its hands as an increasing number of motorists continue to damage their cars on new traffic islands on the Kaiwaka-Mangawhai Road in Kaiwaka.
Mangawhai’s Zoey Liebeck wants to hear from anyone whose vehicle has been damaged in an effort to make a joint claim against Council to cover repairs costs.
Zoey’s partner was driving her car when he collided with the islands, bursting the tyres and damaging the suspension.
