Recession * Estonia - Highway cargo transport firms give back their new trucks to leasing companies

Tallinn,Estonia -Estonian National Broadcasting/LETA reports/The Baltic Course, by Juhan Tere -25 Sept 2009: -- The economic recession forces Estonia highway cargo transport firms to give back their new trucks to leasing companies and use old vehicles that are often in a very bad state and make thus highways dangerous for other drivers... None of the heavy vehicles that the highway safety police inspected Thursday morning while entering Tallinn were in excellent technical condition... The first “victim” of the police operation “fell” before the police could signal the truck to stop as the truck with full load of timber broke down by the roadside right in the sight of the police patrol. “It’s not a turtle to go on for 300 years, it will finally die,” said the driver... Unfortunately the economic recession has taken the proper, mainly leased vehicles back to sales grounds and the work is now done with old and tired trucks. The truck drivers should not be blamed but the owners slip away from responsibility...
