Truck driver dies in West Hartford I-84 ramp accident

They say it's a tractor trailer, but it looks to me more like a utility truck

 

No, it does not look like an 18 wheeler. Here is another article on this and picture.

Sad situation for sure.

 

There are certain laws of physics that can never and will never be broken.

 

It is one of those bridge inspection trucks that hangs you off the side in a bucket.

 

From the article linked in the OP, first paragraph;

WEST HARTFORD, Conn. (WTNH) — A Middlefield man who was doing bridge inspections is dead after a boom-truck became unbalanced and tipped over on him on a highway entrance ramp in West Hartford Wednesday afternoon.
