Mines 2 years old and I've been driving the last 13 months. It was 100% my fault and 100% preventable and I was terminated for it. Western express accepted me but I found a better gig with a 20 truck outfit. Still not doing what I want but I'm paying the bills and still driving. Not a road I would recommend anyone take.

The question may be, if you want to go back after putting it in a ditch on it's side...
-
Once the chitchat gets rolling during dinner at the truckstop you'd be surprised how many drivers admit to rolling a truck.
I'm just wondering why my inability to get one to roll over doesn't increase my value much.Rusty Trawler, Toomanybikes and Chewy352 Thank this. -
Do these tales include hauling missiles?

What are the common causes of roll overs? Wind? Turning too fast? Sliding off the road in ice? Thankfully I have never even came close to rollover but it seems like it happens quite a bit and I was curious the common causes.
-
Yes you can start into a turn a little too fast then roll it over by jerking your steering wheel while hitting some potholes or hitting the brakes in a panic like if ice or snow is on road a steering tire can hit a slick spot then when it gets on hard road it can jerk truck into a rollover if you are driving too fast!

EASY DOES IT! The best thing to remember. No harsh, or quick changes. There is a pretty good chance that if you go into the barrow ditch, it will lay over.snowlauncher and Grijon Thank this. -
You can take a curve too slow a hundred times, but only once going too fast
