Australia allows what they call "road trains", as long as they're not on the main highways.  So when you get to the Outback, where the roads are really lousy, these incredible monsters come along.  They're allowed to be 165' long, which is about what this one is.  We got behind a cattle road train, with three long trailers, on a really poor road and the rear trailer would swerve back and forth wildly so that the truck would have to almost stop.  Unfortunately, we needed to pass it and that meant being in the passing lane for a LONG time with that trailer swerving and forcing us on to the shoulder.  It was tense and Patti was cursing me for passing.
