<div id="ygrps-yiv-1426675568"><blockquote><span title="ireply">&gt;Is that the reason the public was given in NZ?<br/>
&gt;Here I heard it was that the U.S. didn&#39;t recognize any sovereign<br/>
&gt;claims in Antarctica, ergo, no road rules, either.<br/>
&gt;LN<br/>
<br/>
 </span></blockquote>That&#39;s the reason i read in a recent (journalistic) article.<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt;Surely as the US does not recognise any territorial claims in Antarctica,<br/>
&gt;then they would not recognise New Zealand&#39;s jurisdiction in such matters<br/>
&gt;either?<br/>
