The grandparents of 5-year-old Ruby Marris, who was killed by a foreign driver in 2015, support a proposed speed reduction near the spot where she died. JOHN BISSET/FAIRFAX NZ John and Linda Cant, grandparents of Ruby Marris, are happy the speed limit on SH1 near the Moeraki Boulders may be lowered. "The speed limit could be brought right down to 60, wherever anyone is turning into or off the Moeraki turn-off," Wheeler said. According to Senior Sergeant Jason McCoy, of Oamaru, the Moeraki intersection was a "black spot on one of the nation's most dangerous stretches of road".
