Over the weekend we revealed that Bay of Plenty motorists had been crowned the slowest in the North Island. Police issued 48 tickets to Bay drivers for slow or inconsiderate driving in 2015 - the third most for any district in New Zealand. Each ticket is worth $150.
We took to the streets to ask people what they thought, and what driving habit annoyed them the most. Check out what they had to say below.
