What can you do after a jackknife?

I know, trucks aren't supposed to jackknife, & there are a million threads on how to avoid it, but obviously it does happen.
So how do you get your truck out of this position if worse comes to worst, like it did for the guy in this picture?

 

Never been jackknifed but common sense tells me the way to get out of there would be to apply trailer brakes, steer hard to the left and pull everything straight.

 

Common sense is for the other sections, this one is for new drivers. I haven't even been to school yet. Thanks for the input though.

 

You are going to need one of those big blue trucks and $1500-$2000 just to get straight.

 

Just hope that doesn't happen to you

 

Only ever jacknifed once, slowing down for rough rail tracks, in a single axle tractor, early in my career. If it happens quickly, there is no way to practice what to do next. This is when you go from driver to passenger in a heartbeat.
A loaded trailer is heavier than a tractor, try your best not to get into a situation where you have to brake hard in slippery weather.

 

Tractor jackknife. Trailer pushed him. In a parking lot. Cause? Loss of traction on drives and the trailer pushed it sideways.

Primary cause? Moron behind the wheel.

Solution? Dont. be a moron. Ounce of prevention vs pound of cure thing.

 

Crst ? Probably haulin ### to get to the fuel island to take his break .
