DRIVERS FATIGUE * Australia - Exploding truck death fatigue related
Wedderburn,VIC,Australia -ATN, by Samantha Freestone -May 17, 2010: -- A fatal truck crash that caused the vehicle to explode was believed to be caused by driver fatigue... The truck driver died when his B-double collided with a tree on the Calder Highway in the early hours of the morning. Diesel leaked, causing it to catch fire... Police say the 31-year-old man was travelling south near Wedderburn in Victoria when the truck crossed to the northbound lanes... Senior Constable Peter Bullock from Bendigo Police station says no brake marks were found on the road, which makes the case “appear” to be fatigue related... Bullock says the truck was empty and on its way to the sale yards when the crash occurred...
