Well, I don't how how some steering wheel attendants get to drive the big trucks - but here's one guy who will no doubt, go back to flipping burgers ....

The accident site was a little remote for the news crews (Port Hedland, Western Australia), and it all happened in the early hours, so they couldn't get a crew out there before the Police closed the Gt Northern Highway down.

The conveyor was being shipped in from China, and was heading to a minesite in NW Western Australia.
The conveyor made it all the way out of China to Port Hedland, but these clowns barely made it out of the industrial area of Pt Hedland.
The conveyor is a total write-off, despite looking in not too bad a shape. The total damages bill is expected to top AU$30M. :crying
