Here in Sweden/Finland the standard heavy load truck is 74 and 76 tons. A load like this (or larger, up to 200 tons) would typically be carried out by a 5 axle tractor unit with 2 driving axle, one main stearing axle, one front axle and one tag axle. Already as a standard set up the driving axle is alowed to be overloaded to 11.5 tons if the tag axle is under-loaded with a similar amount. The airbags can then at low speed dynamically change the load from the tag axle to the driving axle when uphill or accelerating. The computer in the cab (probobly also the case on this unit in the video) show in real time how much load there is on each axle and the computer can dynamically adjust it as needed. Here where its gets really cool. The computer also knows the load on the trailer and the GPS know how much load the road ahead can carry on each axle, on each pair and at what speed. So for example the GPS can block the truck from lifting the tag axle if they are passing over a low capacity bridge. Each bridge have been classified for a number of specification and when you build the route the truck know what bridges it can pass and can´t pass. The computer also tells the driver if they need to shift he load prior to seting of.

Sweden sends its regards 😘
