Adjusting to life in the northern hemisphere can be tough for Aussies

Not sure how many other countries have road trains, but Australia sure does.
How'd you like to pass these on the highway? It can be hairy to say the least!

Nevada allows triples, as do some other States I believe, but most States only allow doubles.

The thing is that most of Australia is relatively flat, so pulling long "trains" is possible.

Not so in much of the USA!

my understanding about Aussie Road trains is the necessity of moving goods across Vass expanses of territory with very little civilization in between stops. what say you about this Jim ?
