Niue's Drivers Can

A new transport ordinance in creasing the speed limit from 25 to 35 miles an hour on open roads and from 15 to 25 miles an hour through villages has been brought into force on Niue.

The ordinance also requires that boundaries of villages be clearly marked. This will help road users, because, at present, probably nobody can say exactly where villages begin and end.

In the past, it was safer to crawl everywhere at 15 miles am hour than risk appearing in court on a furious driving charge.
