Truck drivers are blocking peak hour traffic on one of the nation's busiest freeways this morning, protesting against high fuel prices. More than 100 trucks are driving in convoy on the F3 freeway north of Sydney, at speeds of between 60 and 80 kilometres per hour. The Transport Workers Union says truckies have had to endure spikes in prices for too long.
