We know it will cost lives. They know it will cost lives. But their justification is basically "we campaigned on it and you voted for us".
Kinda fair enough, we get the government we deserve.
Problem is that the half that deserve it get to inflict the same on the other half too.
Personally, I'm glad Transmission Gully and the Kapiti Expressway are going to 110, it's one of the safest roads in the country, despite the fact that the speed limit is ignored wholesale.
