You try driving those rigs. Perhaps the load shifted as the truck was turning, if so that isn't all the drivers fault, imo

This is whats F up, some punk motocross racer age 17 hauling too much and too many people

JORDAN, Minn. (AP) -- A 17-year-old boy was behind the wheel of a semi pulling a box trailer converted into a recreational vehicle when the 57,000-pound rig crashed through a guardrail and into a Kansas ravine, killing five of the 18 people on board.

Yup. Difficult to tell just from those photos what might have happened. While there are a lot of half assed cowboys driving big rigs, there are also a lot of good drivers that get screwed by the "rest of us."

X2 :happy1: fill his/her shoes and see why this happened .
 
Not a big enuff load to shift(well not overloaded anyways)and that crashed car(hopefully everyone is ok) is in the grass.Looks like the truck driver turned in to fast and/or wide lost the load and the car swerved to miss it but the trailer turn over on it.
 
Hard to tell by the photo but I'm guessing the truck driver was reckless. I drive 450 miles a day pulling a 53' trailer and see a lot of stupid stuff by both truck drivers and 4 wheelers.
 
My Dad lost a load of hay one time. Got going around a corner just little to fast and over she went. Luckily the hay fell off and the truck stayed upright. Now they want every one to run straps over there loads. That way the hay stays on and the truck flips over on it's side. :wack:

Seen a truck carrying cardboard bales toss its load a few weeks ago. Looked like a strap failed while he was pulling out of a parking lot. Other then the mess did not see any damage.
 
we recently had a dairy farms milk truck and trailer flip over on I-25 and burst open. had to have hazmat come out and shut down the freeway to clean it up. what a mess. the driver fell asleep at the wheel, crossed the median, hit a car head-on, flipped the truck , killing a guy in the process
