I think that's why they've ended up limiting them to four trailers these days and only fuel trucks, everyone else gets 200ft.

Remember the days of 5,6,7 trailers Mark?

The Stuart Highway is much nicer these days, I was up there last year.
Interesting is the 130km/h speed limit, although it's not policed as I went past in a Clubsport doing 170 and they waved.
