Is anyone ever going to get used to the giants trucks on our roads, those monsters used to transport sugar cane and that are called, affectionately, 'treminhões' (road-trains)?



They are huge, heavy, unstable and always - apparently - about to cause a terrible accident.


For treminhões I’ve reserved a special spot in my "small collection of abuse" (PCA) due to the fact that the political and economic power that keeps then in motion on brazilian roads is the same one that refuses to build railroads to transport goods, insisting in have costly roads, which needs excessively maintenance (with all the excesses and deviations resulting from that).

The monsters won.
