Les grues routières. [...] Elles sont équipées pour la plupart d’une cabine unique avec double poste de conduite réversible : en position avant sur route et position inverse pour les mouvements de la grue. La conception même de ces grues, immatriculables comme un camion, les rend non seulement utilisables sur routes en raison de leurs performances leur permettant d’atteindre des vitesses de l'ordre de 60km/h, mais aussi sur chantiers où elles possèdent de bons moyens d’évolution, sans toutefois posséder les dispositions des automotrices classiques dans ce domaine. 4, record 1, French, - grue%20routi%C3%A8re
