Kia ora John,
 
Thank you for contacting the Ministry of Justice.
 
We acknowledge receipt  of your request for information regarding the
number of people charged and/or convicted with failing to give details as
a passenger of a vehicle.
 
Unfortunately, as the information is not held by the Ministry and we have
no grounds for believing it is held by another agency or Minister, we must
decline your request under section 18(g) of the Official Information Act
1982 (the Act).
 
We attempted to transfer part of your request to New Zealand Police who
also declined under section 18(g) of the Act.
 
You may consider discussing this issue with the Citizens Advice Bureau who
may be able to provide advice on your rights in this matter. More
information about the Citizens Advice Bureau can be found here:

If you are not satisfied with this decision, you have the right to
complain to the Ombudsman under section 28(3) of the Act. The Ombudsman

Subject: Official Information request - Are passengers required to give
details and if so what section of the law and how many have been
charged/convicted.
 
Dear Ministry of Justice,
 
My enquiry is in relation to how many people have been charged and or
convicted with failing to give details as a passenger of a vehicle.
 
Could you also address also whether the passenger of a vehicle is legally
obligated to give their details as a passenger.
 
Yours faithfully,
John
