Tank Containers: The Long-Haul Champions of Liquid Transport

“Careful on those roundabouts with the tanker, my friend!” Mr. Tu, the rice truck driver at the market, would tease me every time he saw my silver tank container roll by. He was right. Transporting liquids in tank containers is an art, requiring caution and extensive experience.
