well what do they expect with the rediculous delivery times..
-
147 kph Whooeee that must be like 88 miles an hr! That's pretty fast for a wiggle wagon!
-
91.34 mph That's not too bad.
-
100 K on a freeway is total ########. In the USA over here you're a friggen rolling road block at 100K.
-
100kph is a Swift truck, 62mph. ROFLMAO -
Bdoubles arent wiggle wagons...
hit up youtube for what a b double is. -
haha; good thing they cant fine the trucks on slopes; man, with a full load, they can reach up to 160km/h, in Adelaide hills, the truckers have a laugh when cars over take them thinking they are too slow, but as soon as they get to the crest of the hill...
VOOM.. BOOM... and a WOOSH; the b-doubles overtake them with ease.
Oh, and australian (B-doubles) are americas (super B's) -
Wanna bet they cant??
Its called reckless driving..... Been warned about it a few times myself. -
in the hearld sun a few years back, they had a two page spread of the common laws that cameras/tickets have to advise by (20m from speed signs) (on crest of hills).. etc; man, I wish I could find that paper again.. need to keep a copy by me..
oh, earlier today, a cop pulled over a car at a driveway, and where a semi was reversing out of(as it was blocked as the other end), well need-less to say, just as the cop go to the other car, the truck reversed into the cop car...
but, yer, I really gotta find that blasted paper (had rumors that the police comm didnt like this freedom of speech thing when the article came out).. but ill keep looking
..
One day, if I ever get over driving rigs.. ill speed down a slope(that has an uphill after), let the copper pull me over as im going up.. and just gently reverse over it.. bahhaha.
Mind you I have had my fair share of trucks letting the clutch go and roll back 5-10metres (pain in the ### if the fight it, but funny when they find out you have it on tape)
