Pay attention to that speed limit sign

Post by tude dog »

Since living here there have been three such incidents of semi truck drivers tipping their rigs at this corner. Seems common knowledge to expect this to happen every two - three years.

I have driven that curve many times and even in my pickem up truck it isn't advisable to go any faster than the posted speed limit. These cattle truck drivers almost always are blowing past posted speed limits. I would give odds that on the way to that corner he was doing 75 where the limit is 65 mph.

I heard the driver may have broken some ribs and no word on the cattle other than the three that escaped were captured.

















You can see there are several levels inside, and it does stink.

Logging Semi's are the problem here. Cowboys who take corners so fast they need the other side of the road ...and they don't give a hoot if you happen to be there. But the proverbial really hit the fan recently when authorities raided one of the biggest trucking companies that carry most of Australia's petrol.
