A 15-YEAR-OLD boy has been accused of stealing three prime movers and semi-trailers on a round trip to Merriden, where he allegedly sold the load to a local shop.

Police were called to a business in Kewdale at 7am yesterday after staff discovered a truck and semi-trailer were missing.

They later located the abandoned semi trailer at another Kewdale trucking yard where a second trailer had been stolen.

Police say the truck was later involved in a fuel drive-off from a nearby service station and was discovered abandoned at Midland Train Station late yesterday.

It will be alleged the teen drove the truck to Merriden, where police claim he sold the load of 32 limestone blocks weighing 250kg to a local hardware store, before driving back to Perth.

It is alleged he was also involved in the theft of two other trucks during a 72-hour spree.

The teen was charged with six counts of stealing a motor vehicle - three prime movers and three semi- trailers valued at $750,000 - four counts of stealing and two of fraud.

He will appear in Perth Children's Court today.

[XsQuiZiT]

ahha massssssive balls.

[ITGRIPS]

hahaha, wonder how the hell he knew how to drive the thing??? stealing anything is bad and i dont condone it but that's a bloody good effort..

[mys1]

a 15 year old driving a Ranger box. Impressive!

[SLYDR_SAM]

good work, wonder is he had any help,

[Evilteddy]

Those worksafe people will spit chips over a kid driving so many trucks in a 72hour period...

No because changing from truck to truck is classed as a break

[Denver]

thats wild, his father must drive the things and hes spent a lot of time watching, cause road rangers are not exactly something you pick up in 5 minutes, not swapping trailers, mighty impressive!

[Evilteddy]

Was this you Denver?
15... driving trucks...

[Mad_Aussie]

hahahaha fuck thats a top effort there, considering the three top gear guys couldn't collectively drive three prime movers in the space of 24 hours

[namy]

MADDDDDNESSSSSSSSSS sick pingpingpingping

[vrocious]

haha wouldnt the store owner catch on that he bought blocks from a 15 year old?

[family guy]

a 15 year old driving a Ranger box. Impressive!

if anyone has ever driven one, they would have more respect to truckies:wave:

[ITGRIPS]

haha wouldnt the store owner catch on that he bought blocks from a 15 year old?

the store owner probably didn't want to or care to ask too many questions as he would have been getting the blocks cheap ( well i'd assume they'd be cheap being stolen and all!! ) :)

[Scaf]

hahaha thats awesome, well done to him i recon.

[flamo_damo]

Haha put that on his resume'

Driving trucks since 15 lol

[Fusion]

He was probably taking automatic trucks as there are now heaps of them on the road. Driving them is easy, flick a switch to get it into gear and use the clutch only to get going and stopping. It certainly makes life easy.

[Yarms]

the prime mover i drive is auto n doesnt have a clutch.... but never the less he got some skills at 15....

[Anaru]

Yeah depends what truck, some are easy, some are fucking dogs.
the jap trucks (typically) are easy as, but if it was in a older style Mack, Fucking good job.

[kiasu]

"Perth Children's Court"

Fuck id shake the little mad kunts hand!

[Denver]

fuck you, and the horse you rode in on

as for auto's, possible, but he stole 3 different trucks, im pegging not all where autos..

whats more impressive is he got to merridan,m which means going up greenmount, if he had a manual, someone give that kid a job now, because hes got skills

[MMM]

i find this story very hard to believe. I think someone else has driven the trucks and his taking the blame for it.

[mr_mike]

yeh i agree with MMM does seem a bit far fetched

No because changing from truck to truck is classed as a break

no it's not, you can't drive for 10 hours (with break after 5) and then just jump into another truck without a decent break and drive for another 10
would get reemed
vehicle your driving doesn't mean shit, all in the hours

needless to say that's mighty impressive for a 15yo, he'd have had to have been taught how to drive properly, i'd say his old man is a trucky or something
driving a roadranger isn't something you just pick up without practice lol

think he was being sarcastic dude...

Anyway, thats an enterprising young fellow, I like his style.

[mys1]

Believe me I have respect! I always fuck it up when I give it a crack (all of about once a year if im lucky!)

It does come to mind that perhaps the kids copping flack for someone elses doin, but I have cousins out farm land ways that where driving this kind of thing at 15 (headers, primes, etc). guess it depends on you up bringing.

WA now running log books :confused:

[Denver]

only on a company basis, but if theres an accident, worksafe can ask to see the fatuige management sheets

however thats all changing soon and going to a log book method from what i hear, the cops will also be able to look at your fatuige sheets

[Atomic_FD]

^^^ only to discover your watch and rings are now missing.

hahahahaha..

But yea if anyones ever driven a truck they'd understand, and to be honest its not the sort of thing you fluke. Couldnt have been a manual, the kunts only 15. How many 15yr olds do you know who can drive a car? And the ones that can are shit..

This kids got huge knackers... this is not the last we've heard of this menace:lol:

[S133LTR]

the little pingpingpingping is just another piece of shit theif, shame some one didnt catch him and kick the shit of him thus rendering him unable to drive others peoples vehicles again.

[Steppo_GT]

hahahahaha..

I wouldn't exactly say all 15 year olds drive like shit. How do you know this kid hasn't been bush bashing a farm hack since the age of 12 and actually has more experience behind the wheel in situations than a mid 30's soccer mum who doesn't have a clue.

[Passage GT]

every long haul driver i've spoken to has been on logbooks for a few years now (missus old man does interstate runs) and i have to do daily fatigue management sheets and i only do local stuff but that's something our boss implemented
old man never used them when he had his own semi but wasn't a long haul driver
i have the department of transport book around somewhere with the rules and regs but cbf looking for it

[Drift_R32]

i agree if this one of the members cars here youd all be singing a difffernt tune, not saying his a good driver etc. prob a fukn black pingpingpingping or some dero scum..needs a bullet.

Won't be long and it will be tachographs :(
log books are easier to dodge

[Denver]

Don't forget sat tracking no chance of faking that unless you unplug it

[Token]

the boys from my work ending up getting it back out of the mud when it was found.. from what i heard, one was like an 18 speed haha.. takes a fair bit of skill to drive one of them

Sort of; if it was a 4 on the floor with a splitter and a high/low range, that equals 18Speed; still drivable missing gears/not splitting But don't get me wrong, you still have to have a clue about what your doing so +1 about the whole thing being sus

[Passage GT]

apparently our trucks are getting gps tracking fitted soon :(
