Hi there

Have a look at this link, I suggest.

I assume you know that in some parts of Australia they have some HUGE vehicles called Road Trains? Two massive trailers coupled together on the ones I have seen in WA. I am told that there are even bigger ones with 3 trailers coupled together.

These vehicles must be worth an absolute mint. I should think the insurers of them would want astronomical premiums for allowing someone young and relatively inexperienced to drive them.

So whilst I can understand using young backpackers to help with harvests and drive utes etc, I shoudn't think they'd be at the top of the wish-list of a haulier with a fleet of road trains needing drivers.

Hope this helps
