Former Wellington mayor Kerry Prendergast had her licence suspended for speeding, accumulating 100 demerit points over two years.
Former Wellington mayor Dame Kerry Prendergast revealed her driver’s licence was suspended for three months after accumulating 100 demerit points from five speeding convictions over two years, a situation she called shocking and traumatic.
She said she didn’t notice the points building up, leading to the suspension just before Christmas, and relied on her husband for transport during the ban.
Her licence has since been reinstated with 60 demerits remaining, which will expire over time.
Prendergast expressed regret, noting the emotional toll and surprise of her grandchildren, and vowed to never speed again.
The comments came during a discussion on increasing speeding fines to reduce road deaths.
