Overloading of Dump Trucks and its affects
Road and truck safety is compromised. Contractors are not being held liable for their illegal actions. Contractors are knowingly forcing dump truck operators to skip ministry scales.Road infrastructure is being compromised costing the public . Operators are being held responsible for the weight even though they have no bearing on how much a contractor puts in his box. These illegal actions are being done on private, commercial, residential and government infrastructure jobs.Ministry of Transportation bureaucrats have been made aware of the problem officially since March of 2014 but no actions have been taken We have set a deadline for the government to take action before Feb 15 2015 or we will take our case to the general public.
