So what about also banning filthy great trucks that owner/drivers bring back home with them?

How about they also police their garbage contractors who spill rubbish & leave it lay there & then knock bins over?

And Big Brother in the form of the Socio-Fascist Labor government of Queensland run by the Usual Suspect kind of unenlightened chick with no real idea other than ram-rodding the populace like children - grows apace and stretches yet another tentacle out into the community as a surefire means of garnering revenue for nothing.

God some of you are blind.  Every little step takes just that little bit more away from you of your personal sovereignty.

So what if a bin is left out while the householders go to work?  Tough titties.... so the local council will send its parking cops around and book everybody who goes to work, thus imposing another tax on those who work...and all 'within the rules'.

Anyone getting the message yet on 'the rules'?  Parliamentary 'entitlements' are only the most obvious way 'the rules' are bent.

Broad thinking idea there... who provides security for them etc, and parking space for their 'life boat' to get home and back to truck?

What happens to the truckie living alone who leaves night before garbage night and comes home a week later to a $2500 fine?  Who does he kill first?  Maybe the Gold Coast could pay some Bin Maids in golden skimpies to pull them in....

It's exactly like designated bus depots where ex-police act as security. How do you think bus drivers get home after work?

Yes, Herbie and I have pushed for this before.

Large trucks should not be permitted to park overnight in residential areas.

No semi-trailers, no prime movers, and no rigid trucks over 8 tonne.

Have council depots for the trucks, in light industrial areas.

I just asked an american friend who is a truckie if they bring their rigs home when they arent driving and they said no it goes to the base and they drive their car. So its not a new concept.

It's the independent drivers who are the problem.

They work for different companies every day, so they don't really have a base.

They dig up verges, restrict lines of site, and wake people up early in the morning.

There's no place for them in suburbia.

The local council wouldn't use them for their own trucks. Wink

Thank you Gregg ~ we have our differences but on this one and the appalling state of our commercial news services we are in heated agreement.

My RAGE is not hypothetical ~ I lived for years with the disappointment of returning home from work to my own residential property only to be confronted by the unedifying sight of a blue-singleted hairy Neanderthal clambering over his huge truck parked outside his home. And then this arsehole had his truck's refrigeration unit running noisily for hours in the evening.

He used to strut around like peacock.

I personally would have 'gulaged' him to make him more humble and respectful of the people who had to share this residential street with him.

I once wrote to the Daily Telegraph's Letters Page on this subject, and received a flood of sympathetic replies.   

Large industrial equipment such as trucks should not be parked in the quiet residential streets where we worked hard for years to buy our homes.

Yes, the refrigeration units.

I had a similar problem once.

These truck drivers really are the most inconsiderate bastards.
