Thought I would post this video of a little
creek crossing. Age and gender are very evident in the clip.

Yes Will and I love the bits of dodgy packing timber.

I'll never complain about a bit of uneven-ness in any of our major highways ever again! ... [;-)
I thought the rig was only a tandem semi, initially - then I was stunned to see it was a B-double with tri-axles on both trailers!
Is that a slip of a girl driving the first rig?? She doesn't look a day over 18!
Cheers, Ron.

Yes Ron, I believe it is a
young lass pointing the Volvo. Ha ha re the highways, we get it pretty easy these days.

I thought she looked about 15, Ron. :-)
Did a couple of trips to the 'Curry in one of these Globetrotters about 10 days ago. Wouldn't like to be doing what these 2
young ladies are doing!
After a 909 they're a bit different!!! Best advice I had was: "Don't touch the wheel, Bob , don't touch the wheel." But the 700 ponies come in handy.

Bob
There was a great documentry on Volvo on that Mega Factories show last week.
They showed the construction, development and their new recycling programme of the Globetrotters. Apparantley they are aiming for a zero landfill commitment and are now designing with recyclability in mind.
Very fascinating concept.
Cheers

Thanks for that Anthony. Might have to chase that up when I get
home.
Probably leading the field in safety features, is the big Swede. Just a lot different to the American style trucks, and what you get used to.
