Shanghai,China -The Shanghai Daily, by Dong Zhen -5 Dec 2006: -- Nearly half of the cargo trucks running on elevated roads and highways around Shanghai are overloaded, according to traffic police who have stepped up efforts to battle the problem... Police used a portable device to weigh trucks they suspected of carrying too much cargo. Two of the three trucks pulled over yesterday were carrying about 30 percent more cargo than allowed. The other was carrying nearly three times as much cargo as allowed... "The seriously overloaded cargo trucks are like timed bombs on the road that could trigger a mishap at anytime," police officer Chen Yulong said yesterday...
