Request for footage of traffic incident

Craig Stowers made this Official Information request to Auckland Transport

The request was refused by Auckland Transport.

From: Craig Stowers

Dear Auckland Transport,

On Wednesday 1st January 2020, approximately 13:00 (give or take 15 mins) there was a traffic incident on the Northwestern Motorway, Point Chevalier, heading east not long after joining the motorway from the Great North Road onramp.

I was in my silver 2001 Skyline (GBB738) driving along the motorway and a black SUZUKI SWIFT (HWG439) drove right into the back of my car. As I pulled over the other car sped away.

Google maps link of site of accident (not sure exactly but it wasn't very far after the ramp from Great North road:

If there is any footage you can source that would be much much appreciated

Yours faithfully,

Craig Stowers

Kia ora Craig,

 

We are unable to provide you with the information you asked for
 

Thank you for your request dated 11 February 2020 where you asked for CCTV
footage from an incident on 1 January 2020. We're sorry to hear of your
accident.

Unfortunately, Auckland Transport does not have any footage in relation to
your request as CCTV footage is stored for five to seven days before it is
automatically overwritten. 

We will close your request under section 17(e) of the Local Government
Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA), as the footage you
have asked for does not exist.

 

We understand that this isn’t the outcome you hoped for.

 

You have the right to ask the Ombudsman to review how we’ve responded to
your official information request. You can contact the Ombudsman at
[1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

 

Ngā mihi
