This one is by Karl du Fresne over at his blog on which he takes NZTA to task.

Here is his quote:

`NZTA views road users in much the same way as Basil Fawlty regarded his hotel guests – as nuisances to be managed with minimal inconvenience to the control freaks in charge.’

Karl has a couple of posts on NZTA and as always what he writes is well worth taking the time to read.

Disclosure:

I have known Karl since he was about 12. One of his older brothers was a good friend through High School and after and I used to visit the du Fresne home in Waipukurau from time to time.
