That VTNZ truck with the sloping back.

What's in there and what do they use it for! I often see it travelling round Nelson area but it always has a cover over the back. I've never seen it stopped or doing anything. Cheers.

Of course I expect there is more than one.

Hmm, could be I suppose. Have you seen one though! They're not overly big.

I think you'll find it??

They run their own roadside assistance service, I always figured it was a recovery truck. Or do they outsource!

It is a complete unit for issuing COF to heavy vehicles, they go to the small towns about once a month. It is equipt with rollers etc for brake testing, and yes there is more than one.

what a load of s$@t, they have no authority to do any of what you have suggested!

I hate to blow your party but the cviu use this truck for those purposes its not vtnz that pulls them over they just do the checks

noswalg, Feb 9, 8:52am
My bad, thought they were referring to a VTNZ inspector

After rereading their post I think they were saying that too but they are wrong

its mostly used for cofs.
they go to truck yards and do them onsite.

Thanks bro, thats what I said, seems where on the same wave length,, they go to our local transport yard and do all the trucks and also do all other vehicles while they are there.
