Digi card in.
Walk around check of tyres and wheel-nuts.
Out of spreadover.
Card out.

You must be a slow walker, Franglias. :wink:
I can personally attest that it is quite possible to alight from the cab, light a smoke, stroll to the rear most of three fuel tankers, visually confirming all wheels are still attached, reapeat up the left side and around the front, dispose of the butt and continue the journey. :roll:
We don't have tachographs, only a paper logbook, allowing for some creative literature. :twisted:


Bet there`s a few vacancies for tyre fitters?

It took under two weeks to bring the country to its knees. Governments of all level and ideology were forced to meet the owner drivers' demands. It's doubtful such solidarity would manifest itself with today's drivers.
Unfortunately many of the gains these brave men made were short-lived, it typical government fashion, what was given with one hand was shortly taken back with the other.

Warragamba Dan took twelve years to construct, being completed in 1960.
Note the trucks and construction machinery, of UK and USA origin.

I can't contradict that, but let's keep it in perspective; there's more good than bad.

With some serious toughening up, those Barra engines are now producing over 1200 hp, not bad for a 4 litre 6 pot.
