    The kinetic force of it going over is what broke and bent everything. I think he was just going too fast and turning too sharp.

    Is it me or does his trailer look way too long for that load in the first place? Doesn't seem like he needed all those extensions.

    You won't have to worry about being put into a truck like this one as a student driver.

    That simply will not happen due to liability problems from the lack of experience.



    Some loads its size has nothing to do with the weight. The reason for all the axles on this load is to carry all the weight.

    Weight is the reason for those "extra parts"

    Off camber turn?

    Probably lifted everything up and that gave him time to slow before the king pin let go?

    Braking instead of straightening the wheel might have carried it over?
