The "inherently unsafe" brakes in some 70,000 vehicles

For years, a father has been fighting for Waka Kotahi to do more about the dangers of a vehicle braking system involved in his son's death. Now a coroner's report backs him up, but NZTA still disagrees.

After a death on a construction site, a coroner's report has called a braking system found in some 70,000 vehicles around New Zealand "inherently unsafe". Waka Kotahi disagrees.


Guests:

  • Louisa Cleave - Checkpoint senior producer
  • Selwyn Rabbits - safety campaigner
