Overload

(Edited)

Hello, welcome to my blog. How you all doing? It's been a wet Sunday here in my city and the weather is so cold. Hope it's not same in your region?

Some time ago, I had visited Tiffany Fast Food, located along Ikot Ekpene Road, Ogbor Hill, Aba and while enjoying the view of the surrounding environment, I caught sight of this old Volvo saloon car, it's booth heavily loaded with goods zooming along the ever busy road, towards its destination

Overloaded vehicles like this Volvo truck, are a common sight on our roads. It's a scene we've grown accustomed to, and some can even carry a duplex, if possible. Lol.

With Aba, being a commercial city, the demands of everyday commerce is what gave rise to heavily loaded vehicles plying our roads.


More often than not, I do feel a pang of sympathy for these vehicles, wondering how they withstand the weight of the loads. I'm sure if cars could talk, these ones would definetely complain about the overload, and may refuse starting when the ignition is turned on, and you'd hear something like; "I'm not an inch. I can't continue carrying w

Thank you for coming around.

Such vehicles often carry only few passengers especially at the front.
It's the same here. In fact, they'll be paying settlement to the men in black at every junction they get to. This is the reason they charge heavily for transporting the goods.
