A transport company has sent 40 trucks down Auckland's Northern Motorway in a protest against the rising price of fuel.
The protest is being carried out by RNB Transport, to bring attention to fuel prices and road user charge increases.
The heavy vehicles left Silverdale, north of Auckland, shortly after 7am, heading for the central city.
The cost of fuel has become a hot topic in recent weeks.
Earlier this month, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said that the Government is taking steps to look into how and why petrol prices have risen so quickly , jumping by an average of 39 cents between the end of October last year and September 28 this year.
Petrol companies have denied the Prime Minister's claims that they are "fleecing" New Zealand motorists .
