Dear New Zealand Transport Agency,

I was in a crash on 19/05/24 at around 5:35-45pm (yesterday) on the Maioro Street bridge onramp northbound to the western motorway/city motorway tunnel. involving a white toyota Minivan/Van either a toyota Vellfire or Alphard (2008-2011).

I was turning right onto the motorway in a black Honda Integra (2006) and my light was green and stayed green through my entire turn. The other driver proceeded forward without looking on a red light from about halfway through my turn and crashed into the side of my car at around 30kmph.
I was unable to get any information on the driver as I obviously didn't get the plate before they hit me and they drove off right as they hit me. I parked within 10-20 seconds and ran up to see if they had stopped but I saw what I assume was their car heading towards the Stoddard Road end of the bridge and out of sight. I have checked google maps and know there are many cameras around intersections in that area.

I would like to request footage from the intersection of the incident and the one on the other end of that bridge, or any other sets of lights leading up to and after that intersection of the crash so that I can have their number plate and to show the incident to police.

I have already sent an email but looking at other requests and accidents NZTA will often drop a request over footage being deleted within a 7 day period and I refuse to allow this to happen as it was a hit and run and somebody should be held accountable.

Yours faithfully,
Nikolai
