Truckers fight for safe rates with 275 pairs of shoes

Truckers fight for safe rates with 275 pairs of shoes
Australia

Quote:

Transport workers are delivering a stark warning on safety with a truck loaded with 275 pairs of shoes.
The Drive for Safe Rates campaign, organised by the ITF-affiliated Transport Workers’ Union (TWU), left Queensland and is travelling through New South Wales and Victoria before ending its journey in Adelaide.
On board the truck are 275 pairs of shoes, which represent the lives lost in heavy vehicle incidents in the 12 months to March 2008.
Last year the number of truck-related road deaths increased by about five per cent, while wages across the industry were pulled down by six per cent.
