– These margins take the cake. That’s what Hans Martin Svendsen says, who on Wednesday morning turned his truck onto the E39 in Tysvær in Rogaland. After 500 metres, when Svendsen’s truck had reached 57 km/h, he saw a black car on the side of him. At the same time, another truck came towards them. On the road there is an 80 zone. – I have never experienced such “crazy”. He has had a lorry license for ten years, and works with road maintenance at si. Now Svendsen had to put on the brakes. – If it hadn’t been for the fact that both I and him who came against us braked, this would have gone really wrong, he believes.
