The Independent Police Conduct Authority has found that, while Police's decision to charge a man for causing a crash that killed two people was justified, their subsequent decision to escalate the charges from 'careless' to 'aggravated' was not. There were also serious deficiencies in the crash investigation. On 2 April 2018, there was a car crash in Northland which killed two people. The crash occurred in the southbound lane, between a Subaru travelling south and a Toyota travelling north. The driver of the Subaru, Mr Z, and his front passenger died, and two other passengers were seriously injured.
