    Loads usually shift because of one reason. The fact it was sand had nothing to do with it.

    That’s if Massachusetts DOT doesn’t strip the driver of his CDL first!;)

    Sand shift ;)

    Yeah and I'm the king of England.

    That sand didn't shift until the driver's perspective changed about 30 degrees. Its called turning too sharp when driving too fast.

    I love how the car behind it when it flips over just drives around it and keeps going and almost hits the people running over to help get the driver out .

    Echoing what every one else is saying, sand doesn’t shift. It’s mounded in that trailer it doesn’t have anywhere to shift to. Hell it’s 2nd/3rd stage standing a trailer up before it starts to break loose.
