TRUCKERS' HOS * Australia - Cattle industry questions new trucking laws
Alice Springs,NT,Australia -The ABC Rural -30 March 2009: -- The Cattle Council of Australia says national truck driver fatigue laws are an enormous issue for remote beef cattle producers... Concerns were raised at last week's 25th annual Northern Territory Cattlemen's Association conference in Alice Springs... Cattle Council of Australia president Greg Brown, says the laws limit the amount of time drivers can spend on the road... "There's not too many trips out of Alice Springs that you can do in 16 hours working time, let alone driving time, so that's a major issue for this industry, in this country, particularly across a lot of remote Australia."...
