@pezmico@mastodon.nz It is actually correct - in the short term. A truck's load maximum is determined by the road it is driving on, not by how much it can carry. If it is allowed to move more mass per trip, it will theoretically require fewer trips to move a greater total mass. However, it will damage that road in doing so. Which will require many trucks, much material, and a lot of time to repair/replace/upgrade. There is a reason why roads have load limits: it's to save money, and energy.
