National's reforming zeal on transport.
Given the National government's reforming zeal and the introduction of Road User Charges (RUC), for electric vehicles, might I suggest another transport inequity in need of a remedy. The ACC account for motorcyclist injuries nowhere near covers the cost.
ACC collects $27 Million from motorcyclists, which is a shortfall of $87 million on the actual cost to ACC. Who pays that shortfall? Other road users including private car owners do.
According to official figures, motorcycles account for less than 3 percent of motor vehicle crashes,
Immediate action to raise motorcyclists ACC levies is called for.
