Description: In three frames a man about to pick up a hitchhiker, realizes that he hasn't advanced his clock for daylight saving (26 October) and then with horror realizes that he is also driving in a buslane. Refers to a trial in Auckland city that will operate on up to four bus lanes at a time, involving a mix of new signs and road markers warning drivers that a video camera is operating and showing the start of 50m zones where general traffic is allowed to enter the lanes to turn left. The city council is refusing to say where on its 36km network of bus lanes it will put the signs, citing advice from a research company involved in a month-long trial that giving drivers advance notice could invalidate the exercise. The trial follows a public uproar after the council revealed that it issued almost $6.2 million in bus lane infringement notices in the 12 months to June, many to drivers who complained of difficulty judging how far 50m was. That compares with $900 in fines issued by Manukau City for six breaches of its 3km of bus lanes, where signs warn drivers of penalties and parking wardens put out cones 60m from intersections.
