For me, traveling 60kms each way to work is not a problem, i go through 3 sets of traffic lights between tuggerah and hornsby, u tell me somewhere in sydney that u can do that, I have worked in sydney all my life and lived on the coast, u get the problems of things like this happening.
Yes it was a petrol tanker, and another truck, 90% of MAJOR freeway closures are due to trucks f**king up. And most of these would not have anything to do with cars. Maybe its time that truck drivers under go more training or speed limits be lowered.
The place doesnt suck man, i work in sydney all day and then come home and its so peaceful on the coast, u can breathe easy and realy the area isnt over crouded like sydney.
$28 million dollars has been spent on the contra flow systems, and these wernt opened up until 8-9 hours after the accident happened..WTF..
Myself and Qantas were stuck in this.. finished work at 5 at hornsby and got home at 9.30 at tuggerah.. its a joke.
We were on the old road and we had a truck behind us.. i was leaving a 1 to 2 car gap and letting the car crawl in first, to save the clutch a bit, and this truckie was just CM off our back bumper, flashing his lights and honking the horn.. he of all ppl can see quite well that the traffic wasnt moving at all..
