Need to en-force safety by making examples and sending the guilty, their supervisors and owners to jail.

You all notice only 2 ropes used to secure the concrete slab?
Grossly inadequate!
Very sad, someone negligent, another dead.

must be a lousy job at securing the heavy load...
Think sometimes see those heavy vehicles with heavy load on the trailer, can hear loud funny noise, some like got trailer tire punctured, and they still carry on moving.

They won't stop one. Doubt any of them bother to check when the vehicle started moving. As long as vehicle can move. Typical of many drivers perhaps.

Maybe cause complacent, small place, not far, they betting on being able to make it to the site before any big crap happen.

Also maybe cause think if they stop and replace or repair, or with the load mean change vehicle somehow. It will be a heavy cost to them. They gamble, the other road users pay. :s22:

So, best is to keep clear of such vehicle, especially when they carry heavy load. If cannot, then let them pass first.

I doubt the authorities will do much, maybe just fine the company a few hundred thousands which is peanuts to the company. Driver even if jailed maybe few months nia. As long as it's not their inner circle or certain types of foreigners, I don't think they give a crap
