Class A Tire Blow and Roll-over
I am sure this is old and has been posted before but made me wonder.... How much did the driver's actions play into the final outcome? Link to YouTube video

MSmith1199, you may be right, the cable barrier may have helped him, I guess we may never really know.
What we don't know is how much control he had while in the median. The cable certainly did grab the coach and took over control at that point.
I recall when the original video was released that the trucker spoke about his own speed. When I pull up the original youtube dash cam, there is no sound. I think the trucker said that he, personally, was going 70 mph. That's just what I remember and could be wrong.
What would be great is, if the the original guy driving the coach was on RV.net and could tell us exactly what he was doing and what went on, etc. That would be the icing on the cake.
Safe travels,
MM.
