The Panel with Aimie Hines and David Downs (Part 1)

From The Panel, 6:06 pm on 3 July 2024

Tonight on The Panel, Wallace Chapman and panellists Aimie Hines and David Downs discuss the announcement of standardised testing from the beginning of school and the debate on speed limits raging on.

The State Highway 73 speed limit boards at the eastern approach to the West Coast town of Kumara (Kohimara). A proposal to lower much of State highway 73 speed limit from the current 100km/h to 80km/h on the route from the Coast through Arthur's Pass to Canterbury has been strongly opposed by the West Coast authorities.
