The Timâ€" mins police are on theâ€"watch for any trucks that are overloaded and any that they catch will be charged. At this time when the roads are starting to soften up an overloaded truck can do a lot of damage and it is to the trucker‘s own advantage to keep his load within the capacity that his liâ€" cense allows. As a result of the Police departments campaign against the overloading of trucks two men are now charged with that offence and will appear in police court on Tuesday. Alex Peters of 69 Sixth avenue and Simon Lafrance of 18 Lillian avenue (across the bridge) are both charged with overloading .
