Last Queen's Birthday weekend 11 people lost their lives on roads around New Zealand. It was the highest toll for a Queen's Birthday weekend in 27 years.
However, while this weekend's road toll is lower, 2017 has been an overall deadlier year on the roads.
A total of 138 people have been killed on the roads as of June 2, 2017, higher than the 124 killed by the same date last year.
