In the last month, Raglan Police has received 103 reports, including:

• 15 x Family Harm incidents resulting in 2 x arrests

• 8 x Burglaries

• 10 x Driving offences including 3 x drink driving and 3 x vehicle crashes

• 7 x Theft

• 5 x Fraud-type offences

We are seeing an increase in Burglaries again. A number of these have occurred in the CBD area and also in the streets close to the CBD – Stewart Street, Cliff Street, James Street, and Wallis Street. They are happening during the day as well as by night. Home CCTV security systems are not as expensive and cumbersome as they used to be. They can be a deterrent to potential thieves, along with an audible alarm and security lighting. Bicycles seem to be a wanted commodity too. Please ensure you do not leave your bicycles outside insecure. Lock them away overnight. If they have to be kept outside, lock them to something.

A reminder that SH23 just as you leave town, to just before Greenslade Road has a 60km/hr speed maximum limit. Many drivers are continuing to travel along here above this speed. The speed limit changed here several months ago, so the period of grace to get used to the new speed limit has run out.

Keep those driving distances between vehicles when it is particularly wet or icy on the roads and remember that getting where you need to get to is the goal, not how quickly you can get there. Give yourself plenty of time, be patient, and drive to the conditions.

Stay safe - Raewyn, Andrew, Linda
