Some of you might remember the truck accident I posted about near Mount Magnet a couple weeks ago , and the connection I gave it to driving when tired, some other posters said drugs, others thought mechanical failure of some type,
The true answer I found out today, The driver was on medication for Fits, his Doctor gave him the all clear and the poor bugger had another on his first trip back on the job, it was in daylight at around 2pm

Hi Doug. Luckily no one else was involved, could have been a lot worse with the
migraters just getting on the road north. We just got back from Meeka and the amount of trucks out there is unbelievable. Must of passed you somewhere judging
buy the number of pilots vehicles on the road.




Cheers Brian

Quite on the cards mate, Trip before was 2 6.5 grey bins and last week was 2 blue screeners.

Oh and it's about time you upgraded your old GPS to a Garmin Quest or Nuvi

Have a look at mine - I used some velcro and drilled a small hole through for the cable so it does not hang everywhere

No I didn't, coz my little 2+ doesn't have the facility for large digits and I guessed it was probaly a 3+, but now I bought the photo up and yeah, you can see the 3.
That's why I purchased a 72 model so I could see the bluddy digits.
So now I can have 1 for walkabouts and leave 1 in the vehicle.
Thanks
