Bright lights, big city

Just when central Wellington is struggling to keep pedestrians and motorists focussed on where they should be walking or driving to avoid yet another person being run over on Willis Street …

… we now have a huge TV at that very intersection.

All bright and flashing like being in Hong Kong or Vegas. Even while they were setting it up today showing nothing much but the Windows restart screen and hour-glass cursor people were slower to cross the road and motorists slowing for the lights were gazing up.

I wonder how long it will be until the first nose-to-tail. I’m not a pessimist, just ‘practical’ 😉
