Miscellaneous Notices
Snapt!
A new website to report road user frustration. This is the opportunity to identify and expose those who abuse the rights of others and the road code. Visitors to this site are invited to publish their photos, their views and have an opportunity to vent their frustrations rather than take matters into their own hands. At the same time those who create havoc will soon come to know they will be exposed and published. The aim of this site is to create awareness so that behaviour will be modified! Our aim is to get the rage out of drivers and courtesy back in! This website has a Forum dedicated to disability parking issues.
