Stop allowing digital billboards to distract drivers and add stress to our lives

There has been a proliferation of LED billboards going up in cities around New Zealand. It's started to feel like we are all living inside the internet. This needs to stop to reduce the negative effects it is having on drivers and on the stress levels of the population generally.

Why the contribution is important

People around the world are starting to push back against having advertising thrust into our faces in public places. Not only are digital billboards distracting to drivers but they can have a negative effect on mental health. They are overwhelming and overstimulating for many of us who are neurodiverse.
