Land Transport New
Zealand says it sympathises with a Dunedin bus driver who will lose his job
because of a crime he committed as a teen. Thirty four years ago
Lloyd Walsh was convicted of unlawful carnal knowledge after he slept with
his girlfriend two days before her 16th birthday. The 50-year-old has
been told under new legislation he must have his licence as a driver at
Dunedin Passenger Transport revoked. LTNZ spokesman Andy
Knackstedt understands how this situation could be viewed as harsh, but says
they are bound by the law. He says it is up to the
government to modify the law |
