The silent mailmen...


Official figures show the electric vehicles, known as Paxsters, have been involved in 34 crashes - four during a trial period in 2014 and 2015, and 30 since they were rolled out in larger centres last year.
There are now 50 Paxters in use after New Zealand Post spent $15 million on the vehicles, which were imported from Norway.
Figures showed the crashes were collisions with people or objects but NZ Post said there have been no reported injuries to members of the public.
The Postal Workers Union has shown some concern for the operators of new vehicles.
