    A friend of mine posted it on her page and tagged me in her post. Personally I think this driver did an amazing job given the circumstances

    The airline's to the rear of the trailer broke which caused it to lock up.Judging from the video FedEx coasted down the mountain to safety with ease and grace.I give him a two thumbs up.
