    My advice to ‘tradies’ is to ditch their fuel guzzling diesel #Trucks and purchase a BEV Van instead. Sure looks less #Blokey but it keeps the business going regardless, especially if tradies install PV panels and PV Btty on their home as well. It’s a no-brainer really. Heck, if you can’t afford a BEV Van, take out a lease and benefit from tax concessions. Monster 4WD ute owners winging about cost of fuel ought to start thinking with their brains and not their dicks IMO. Happy to take flak on this.

  17. Truck spotting Australia

    Trucks are wonderful machines which bring most of what modern societies need to retailers from wholesalers, accross thousands of kilometers nautical & land miles

    Wave to a truck driver when he sees you, their lives are lonely since they need to spend hours on the road and sleep in the trucks too at truck stops

    In AU, do NOT overtake a road_train!

    • request attention from the driver
    • he will signal you when it's safe to pass
    • it can take many minutes!
    • DON'T BE A HERO!
    • The driver has three sometimes even four trailers he pulls, he IS a train on the road
    • A lot of mass is moving there
    • MASS IS SLOW

    Don't be a hero don't pass a road train without thinking!

    Road Trains can be fun to drive but it is a tasking job, more intense than driving single trailer trucks. The vehicle mutli-trailer combo acts slow in response to all your moves. forcing you as the driver to pre-calculate them and anticipate the delayed reaction

    Definition

    A road train, also known as a land train or long combination vehicle (LCV), is a semi-trailer truck used to move road freight more efficiently than single-trailer semi-trailers. It consists of two semi-trailers or more connected together with or without a prime mover.[1] It typically has to be at least two trailers and one prime mover.

    Important

    Road trains are often used in areas where other forms of heavy transport (freight train, cargo aircraft, container ship) are not feasible or practical
