Two people riding the same dirt bike were injured when they crashed into a vehicle in east Auckland.
Counties Manukau East Police senior sergeant Anson Lin says he anticipates charges will be laid as the investigation into the incident in Pakuranga on July 15 continues.
“The incident occurred when a dirt bike crashed into a van that was turning into Kentigern Close, from the Pakuranga Highway, at around 12.40pm.
“We are aware this dirt bike had been riding through nearby intersections prior to this incident disregarding the road rules.
“At the point of the crash, the dirt bike has failed to stop for a red light.
“Both the rider and passenger sustained injuries, and neither were wearing a helmet.”
Lin says speculation by people around the circumstances of the incident is “not overly helpful in this case”.
“However, we can confirm the van driver stopped at the scene and waited for police to arrive.
“He spoke to our staff who attended and fortunately he did not sustain any injuries.”
The incident resulted in hundreds of comments being made on local community Facebook pages by people who debated who was to blame for the crash.
