    "He tried to stop the truck, which rolled over him and resulting in his death, police said."

    Sad. Why would anyone think they could stop a rolling rig?

    Are you serious? He was either trying to get back into the cab and pull the knobs or he was trying grab the glad hands and yank the red one out, and he slipped. It isnt rocket science what he would have been trying to do.

    I KNOW what he was trying to do, but why? How many stories like this have we heard? It's not worth the risk . THAT'S my point.
