Yeap, anywhere near the docks is pretty loose for trucks.
Poorly kept trucks and drivers on drugs.
A semi rolled near there yesterday morning, cops did him for Ice, fucking idiot.
My all-time favorite was just before the airport tunnel, a dump truck came screaming past, with the bin UP, I slowed down a watched it hit the tunnel entry at about 100, I managed to get into the right lane and took the Bexley exit.
Alot of truck drivers around Sydney are loose cannons.
Most of the trucks are old junk as well.
I haven't seen a inspection station set up around the port for ages, the truck companies complained that they were harassing their drivers, had nothing to do with trucks without working lights, bald tyres or speeding, oh wait, yes it did.
I would assume bribes were adequate to stop the inspections and fines.
If our local council is good at one thing, that one thing is corruption.
