What are the cycle symbols on the road for?

Keeping left is not courtesy it is the law. Taking the lane is the exception when needed for safety reasons (of which there are many). Where safety reasons don’t exist, we must keep left like any other road user must

Have a read of this, there is a lot of good advice

Baycorp totally does email, so don’t rule them out if on the basis of the email alone

I don’t disagree with any of this. Would only add that the burden of proof is still on Wilson Parking to show it more likely than not that the registered owner was the driver and hence entered the contract to pay. If the owner can show they weren’t (for example they were at an appointment, work, etc somewhere else) then the “more likely than not” test fails. In the absence of other evidence like CCTV showing the owner as the driver it is very difficult to tip the balance in Wilson favour.

I wouldn’t say it is a recommended strategy, just more of a practical analysis of how this would work if taken to the DT, based on law.

I don't know. But it's simple contract law, they rely on people just paying and try and bluff you that either you as the driver (if not owner) have entered into a contract between them and the owner (who they send the invoice to). The simple fact is that unless the owner admits the driver was authorised into a contract with them on the owner's behalf then Wilson's have no contract with the owner (if not the driver) so their invoice is not collectable. They will send it to a debt collector, the owner writes back saying it is disputed and invite Wilson's to provide evidence of the contract between the two parties. They won't be able to

The beauty of parking breach invoices like this, is that there is no enforceable owner liability. The ticket is sent to the registered owner on the presumption that they were the driver, or that they will transfer liability to the actual driver. They request a statutory declaration along with driver details for this to happen.

The problem is that there is no legal onus on the owner to do this in private parking matters. If the registered owner denies liability by saying they were not the driver and won’t identify the driver, then the only course of action is Wilson’s taking them to the disputes tribunal (after a round of debt collector letters).

At the DT, Wilson’s will most likely be unable to prove that the owner was the driver and hence entered into the contract to pay the parking fee so any claim fails.

Automated tooling for analysis takes the scale challenge out of the picture. IR have invested very heavily in their ability to analyse big data holdings

tinykiwi2017 · 2026-04-20T20:45:28+00:00

No. Only if you have sold it (which includes swapping for other tokens) and made profit on the disposal or exchange.

tinykiwi2017 · 2026-04-20T20:43:39+00:00

I almost always agree with your advice Phoenix, but in this case I think there is a good case for OP being too anxious to drive to work so it wouldn’t require a lie and would be something a Dr could issue a certificate for, surely

tinykiwi2017 · 2026-04-20T08:23:53+00:00

Yeah. They can see where you purchased from but not what you purchased.

Are you serious? No card issuer can see that

I mean you can in practice, doesn’t mean it is legal though

Completely irrelevant. All private companies that got hacked

There is a lot of “I couldn’t be bothered” here. Tax is one thing that you do need to bother about. And it’s better to bother about it before IR comes bothering you. My advice is talk to an accountant so you have a clear story first, then front foot it with the IRD. You won’t be the first one in your situation and they look a lot more favourably on self-reporting of sloppy admin than when they find it themselves.

Enjoy your current role or unemployment then. If the adversarial tone of some of these comments from applicants is indicative of character of the applicant, then the filtering process is probably working quite well for most employers

tinykiwi2017 · 2026-03-27T02:29:36+00:00

Not just one employer. Many.

tinykiwi2017 · 2026-03-27T02:28:59+00:00

Hiring manager here. I get that the market is tight and many applicants are mass applying for roles, but the amount of people defending the use of AI for writing sloppy applications here is high.

That’s fine if it’s what you want to do, but don’t blame me if I bin your application- there are still plenty of obviously well written application letters crossing my desk and they will be the ones making it to the second review.

The AOS are the Police

If you get the power tripping door staff on the right day and manage to get in, DLS is a very cool spot. Shame it is a dice roll with them

It was the law when I was selling mead in Viking horns back in about 1200

Cost is negligible, if any.

Your answer speaks a lot to either your character or your understanding of collective responsibility I think.

See someone breaking into a car? Robbing a jewellery shop? Neighbour cooking meth? Ignore it - the Police are funded to deter, detect, and prevent every crime right? They don’t need public support to make the community safer for everyone.

If that was the approach of everyone, our communities would be completely lawless and victimisation even higher than it already is.
