Notice how none of the blue trucks have front wheels on and there sitting on the front brake disks.

Bugger, well seeing thats china it dont supprise me in the least.....
I once saw a car in the Gobi desert carrying 30 foot long tree trunk logs.... they were going through the rear doors, which were removed and they were piled to the roof.... reminded me of a person walking a tight rope carrying their balance pole.... by the time i got the camera out they were gone :( |

After I posted I noticed that. They are drum brakes on the front. I dont think you can buy any new car in Australia with front drums. Can you?

That is the dodgiest thing I have seen for a long time. Holding trucks together with bread ties isn't recommended.
Oh well. Their country...their laws. |

As dodgy as this looks, I think you’ll find that these won’t be going anywhere. Also, they are two different vehicles. Over in China, this is probably a tried and tested way of doing things. Over here, a stunt like this would most likely end up with the people responsible having a little holiday in a very small room with a bloke called Bubba.
We have some of the toughest laws in the world for load restraints so thankfully, we will never see anything like this over here.

Looks worse than it is .The only truck hanging any weight off the edge of the trailer is the last one and only the back half of it is wich would only weigh about a ton.I dont find it unsafe,they are all tied down and im sure thve done it a hundred times before.

Ive heard India etc are also just as bad. Cows everywhere, people driving at what speed they want, when they want.
LOL at the triangle on the back. Surely when they were craning them up (I assume thats how they got there) and then strapping each one down individually someone would have had second thoughts!
