Transportation Scenes in Modern China - 2008

Ridiculous Load - 25

One big problem in China's transportation system is there seems to be either little rules about the size or weight of loads or enforcement of rules if there any exist. Here is a good example of a rather improper load on this truck. It is being driven through a urban area without much concern by anyone. Overloaded trucks are especially risky with respect to bridges because the extra load could cause damages to bridge structures. Goods on the overloaded trucks generally were not packed in a safe manner.
