Hi James,

 

Thank you for your request of 6 March 2017. The NZ Transport Agency does
not hold information on whether a crash occurred specifically due to a
driver mistakenly believing that they were entitled to drive on the wrong
side of the road.

 

However, the Transport Agency can provide broader information on the
number of crashes, by crash type and year, where a vehicle involved was on
the wrong side of the road. This information does not confirm if a crash
was due to mistaking which side of the road to drive on, only that a
vehicle involved was on the wrong side of the road.

 

Please clarify what information you are seeking or confirm if the
information noted above would be sufficient for your request by 17 March
2017.

 

Kind regards
