Whenever you cross a highway on a pedestrian bridge, or look down on the city from a high rise building.

I did 10 years in Devonport, 15 Mm, WSW of there.

The only thing I see painted on the top of the trailers is the company initials and a trailer ID number, and those are very sparse. I guess that makes it possible for security services to follow critical loads on the highway from a helicopter.
