The Kaikoura drive out

From Afternoons, 1:15 pm on 25 November 2016

For the first time in nearly two weeks, Civil Defence in Kaikōura has agreed to allow people to drive themselves out of the quake-hit town. About 100 drivers have confirmed to Civil Defence they want to leave by road. But the plan depends on the weather and on the road being safe.

RNZ reporter Ian Telfer, is there.
