Watching youtube showing all the trucks loaded waaaaay past their limits is just insane. I cant imagine these trucks having much of a lifetime. Not to even mention the dangers to others.

I see a spot at the top where they could fit one more rock!!!!

But seriously, it is fascinating how much they over load trucks in some countries. Keep in mind that trucks are often already used and worn out when they are shipped to those countries because they cannot pass inspections in places with more controls.

It is kind of like those US Postal Service boxes, "If It Fits, It Ships®. Priority Mail®" Does not matter how much it weights. (They have recently set a 70 pound limit.)

The difference being you have to be able to close the box to ship it.
