Along NH 8

Trucks and agriculture ...

This is an auto transport truck in India -- about the size of our 53' 18-wheelers, but much larger than the typical "Goods Carrier" or even a long standard shipping container. When it pulls onto the highway, it blocks everything!

There were about a half-dozen of these trucks carrying large pipe. They really overhung their lane and made it difficult for another truck to pass. If it fits, it ships! No need for warning signs or escort vehicles!



In the rainy season, the land is full of rice paddies (as in the lower left of photo). The rest of the year they make bricks.
