    I pull Containers here in Florida and this type of hauling is not for everybody. I bet he went to fast on a curve and being top heavy got him. Now DOT in Canada will stop every tractor from that company for the next two months for inspection!

    I would say yes our "dirt haulers" are crazy drivers, not really the dumb trailer guys as much as the regular dump trucks.. They are always in a hurry, cutting people off etc.. They are just as bad at the cars... As for trash haulers here we mostly don't drive like maniacs, I am not sure about your weight limits but most of us waste haulers are 140,000lbs so that would help out with not being able to drive like a moron..
