Lorries: the unseen enemies

lorries are emerging as the true enemies of the revolution: not the whinging mealie mouthed platitude generating prevaricators who litter our daily path and admonish us that we are on a wrong path to perdition... and fail to attend meetings to discuss their complaints... No it's the ubiquitous lorry.

Every morning as i listen to the radio road reports that enable me to pick my way carefully about our all neglected city the news is about lorries.

"A truck has broken down on the Mike 1 at the double decker section taking some lanes out of action.

A truck has broken down at Gilhooleys interchange blocking off ten kilometres of highway ...

A truck has overturned at yet another spot dumping a load of pigs/oil/chemicals/produce/timber/all over the associated traffic that is now piling up for the next twelve kilometres.

A truck has jacknifed into another truck on Van Reenen's pass. All traffic to the coast must now go through newcastle if you can remember where it is."

 Day after day it is the same news. You can generally predict that your journey to hell starts with a truck doing something unsheduled and blocking up the highway. Some days every route around and through the city is blocked and on really bad days every route around and through every city in the country is blocked, siphoned and remotely paralysed by disabled lorries. 

The cost annually of the congestion brought about by overloaded trucks flouting the law is calculted at billions in terms of road destruction. Now calculate the cost of millions and millions of person labour hours spent sitting in twisted gridlocks all over the country every day due to scumbag lorry operato9rs loading their trucks until the axles collapse and lo we lost a percent or two of GDP and who knows what else we lost as well.

 Can anyone rid us of this menace. The revolution is under siege. Never mind the pederasts and the lurking rinderpest...  the lamentable lorry is the recidivistic enemy of the people's revolution.

Viva lorry free driving.
