ROADWORKS !


Driving along the coast road on the way to the beach and came across some little road cones, indicating a hazard... looks to me like it could come down any minute!
New Zealand attitude? Get over it! Carry on..
Health and safety is refreshingly moderate over here, but sometimes I wonder? When there is a rockfall or slip (pronounced "slup" ) it sounds like a bomb going off and then 'rocks everywhere'!
What causes it? Earthquakes, severe rainfall, moving thermal areas & geothermal activity.






Sometimes they just land in the middle of the road, so you need your wits about you!
