Tasmania,Australia -Workplace Standards Tasmania/ABC News -Sep 26, 2009: -- Workplace Standards Tasmania has warned it will be inspecting more log trucks on the state's roads, after recent random safety checks found problems with every truck the authority stopped... A dozen trucks were inspected at Triabunna in July; nine had serious problems... Their drivers were issued with notices to rectify the faults... Neale Buchanan from Workplace Standards says the safety issues included worn straps, defective chains that were securing the loads, and logs piled too high...
