jesus... i already get a bit nervous driving next to a truck... imagine that...

[DirtBikesAustralia]

Yep - i don't think there is a truck in Australia without a 40 channel UHF radio installed...

Channel 40 is the 'official' truckie channel

Looks like a Mack V-Liner tractor. Compare it to the size of the little white Daihatsu Delta speeding by in the beginning!

No, in Australia there not allowed anywhere well populated areas, to many cars around, Ive been on the Toomoomba range and i'm surprised trucks even go up there. I've even heard police stop road trains in Mt Garnet because they destroy the road.
