I've already posted what I myself see in the video.
I don't believe it's a picture show film (with frames). All I can do is stop/start/stop/start/stop/start.....at different frequencies. And, not once do I detect that this driver ever have control of his motorhome (at any time after the tire blew out). It was out of his control, and that explains why the motorhome simply kept veering to the left, and went down the incline and became intangled with the cable. The motorhome did exactly what I would predict, when there is no corrective action by the driver.
When a front steer tire suddenly fails, there is NO time to think about what to do. You have to instantly react correctly. He didn't.
It's similar to an engine failure on the takeoff roll at 120 mph on a twin engine jet aircraft. If you fail to immediately counter the adverse yaw,.....you crash.
Cloud Dancer, I certainly respect your posts but I totally believe that the driver had control once he crossed the cable wires. The cable grabbed under the motorhome causing him to flip.
I'm not trying to change minds..... but, I believe the video speaks for itself when you do a slow-motion frame by frame movement. The cable snaps the ground as it grabs something under the motorhome frame and causes it to flip.
Comparing a plane to a motorhome is not an apples to apples scenario. A motorhome never leaves the ground on it's own power.
