From: James
Dear Auckland Transport,
I was involved in a crash at the intersection of bush road and albany hwy. I was heading back towards Glenfield at approx 12.20pm on 05/08/20 when I went into the back of someone due to a epileptic black out. The crash reference I have is PO43176572.
The accident was between my Silver Mazda atenza(registration LFG737) and a Blue toyota (registration LWR306) .
I will need this to show my doctor so if this could be sent through as soon as possible it would be much appreciated.
Thank you for your help.
Yours faithfully,
James Eymael

My name is a Varsha and I'm a LGOIMA Business Partner at Auckland
Transport.
I'm looking into your request for CCTV footage of an incident that
happened on 22 September 2020.
Can you please clarify if the incident happened near Albany Expressway or
Upper Harbour Highway?
Kind regards,
Varsha

Hi Varsha,
Couple of things. The incident was not on that date, it occurred on the 5th of August 2020.
And it occurred at an intersection with a set of lights. This intersection is bush road, albany highway, and schnapper rock road.
Hope this clarifies things. Thanks for looking into this.
Yours sincerely,
James

We are unable to provide you with the information you asked for
On 25/08/2020 you asked for CCTV footage.
I'm sorry to hear of the incident. Our Auckland Transport Operations
Centre (ATOC) have had a look at that intersection and we don't have any
cameras in that location. Therefore, your request is refused until section
17(e) of the LGOIMA, as the information 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

Dear AT Official Information (AT),
Hi Varsha,
To ensure you are looking at the correct intersection below is a link showing the camera at these lights.
https://www.google.co.nz/maps/@-36.75559...
When the policeman came to see me after, he showed me a photo of the rear of my car and said he had seen the video. If you could look into this a bit more that would be great as I really need this for my doctor.
Again, this crash happened on 5th August at 12.20pm.
Yours sincerely,
James

Kia ora James,
The ATOC team have had another look and the camera at that intersection does not belong to Auckland Transport. I would suggest contacting the Police Officer assigned to your case to help get a copy of the footage he referred to.
I'm sorry I couldn't be of further assistance with your request.
Kind regards,
Varsha
