This was not just brain-rejuvenating relaxation, but also an opportunity to think through the just-announced news that NZ Police were not going to be able to do random roadside testing for drugged drivers. That possibility has been in the melting pot for over a decade now, as New Zealand grappled with preventing the 100 road deaths per year caused by drugged drivers. The legislation was passed last year for implementation on March 11 this year.
