Ale,
Is Professor Kim Hassall in this email group? If he isn't then he would be
a good person to speak to as he has done a deep dive into recent NTI data,
especially in relation to heavy vehicle safety.

I should also note that B-doubles were first introduced in Victoria (on a
non-trial basis) in 1992 at up to 23.0 metres in length. So this would be
the 25th anniversary of the B-double - at least in Victoria.

Hi all,
almost ready to launch in Argentina as a whole, I need your help asap to
counterattack those who still state B-doubles are unsafe because of their
length.
I need a few reports like the one from Australian NTI, where it shows
exactly the opposite, and actually states that the B-doubles continue to be
the best performer from a loss and safety perspective (page 20 of the last
report)
It can be any HCV and the bigger the better actually. and the more visual
the better as well.
Thanks
Ale
