Hi,

The guy opposite us has a truck parked in front of his place, and I don't think it's his. Usually between 5:30am-6am (though it was 3am this morning) a car parks in front of our place and a guy gets out and gets into the truck. Noisy bloody diesel thing. Not real big, but big enough to hold a Bobact in the tray section. Sometimes he reverses and you get that loud beep-beep, then he drives off.

Sometimes it's another truck, about the same size but with a Bobcat on a trailer. Just as noisy.

I checked the RTA site (NSW) and it says that trucks over a GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) of 4.5tonnes are not permitted to be parked on the shoulder of the road. However, it never explains if that means it can or cannot be parked in front of a house with a curb/guttered road.

It's not that the truck is parked badly or dangerously, it's just that I'm tired of hearing this thing wake me up. Especially as it appears the driver doesn't park it at his place but prefers to park it outside his mates place (opposite my house) so rather than annoy his own neighbours they can annoy me.

Sorry River, the only thing you can do in your case is to talk to your neighbours about the noise, apart from that there's not much you can do about it.
Oh by the way I had nearly 30 years interstate truck driving.
