Autonomous Trucks
A dramatic move by police to improve heavy vehicle safety and compliance has seen hundreds of truck drivers in Melbourne issued with infringement notices. These areas included Bulla Road, Calder Freeway, Hume Highway, Mickleham Road, Pascoe Vale Road, Somerton Road and Tullamarine Freeway. Police also issues a series of infringement notices to heavy vehicle drivers that had unsecured loads. Fawkner Highway Patrol Senior Sergeant, Megan Cartledge, warned that this behaviour can lead to “absolutely devastating consequences”. This simple action could save a life.”Fawkner Highway Patrol will continue to run targeted operations to address road safety.
