With some road trains almost 60 metres long, new rules in WA mean truckies will have to display signs alerting other drivers to their vehicles' length. But the haulage industry says the change will be costly and ineffective.

I like the idea at the end of the article more. Spend some time educating people on how to overtake roadtrains safely. Me, i have no ideaif the random bits i’ve been told would actually be useful or not.

    Sounds like a pen pusher had an idea, and pushed it forward, without really thinking it through. This “successful trial” is not linked to at all. Their idea of success is probably a beurocrats idea of success.

      It really sounds like it, i can’t see it being very easy to get any data on real changes in behaviour from the trial, and its indicated that there was simply a positive response from the public.
