    Semi trailer rolls over on Highway 19

    Republican Eagle, MN
    4/2/08
    John C. Buxton says he lost his livelihood when his semi truck and the loaded, attached trailer rolled over Tuesday morning, landing in the ditch off Highway 19 near Goodhue County Road 41.

    "I worked 15 years for that truck, and it's gone," said Buxton, who owns the truck. The trailer belongs to the company he drives for, Knudsen Trucking Inc. of Hager City.

    I'm not in the safety department, but it seems to me that this was unpreventable on his part.. though the 55mph speed on a partly slushy road may have contributed.
