Primary factor. Tire failure,
Secondary factor- driving 80 mph. He may have recovered it if not driving that fast.

Don't worry about avoiding any State particular that use the cable guards, just stay on the road and you'll be fine!

MM.

Primary factor. Tire failure,
Secondary factor- Safety cable. He may have recovered it if not for it snatching him sideways.

I am with the guys who observe the driver regaining the control on center divider and cable pulling the motorhome sideways.
As usually left lane blockers are trying to force the agenda that speed kills.
Speed is always a factor, but as German autobahns prove, it is not high speed that kills. It is sudden stop and poorly design cable looks like definite factor in this one.

For unknown reasons, the driver was not capable of instantly executing the first step, second step, and third step, in the procedure of maintaining control of his motorhome. That's all we know.
Can we learn something valuable from his experience? That's what we need to set as our goal IMO.

Speed was a secondary factor. The blown tire was the primary factor.

It may have in this driver's case. Impossible to tell. Maybe he was making a sandwich. All we can do is speculate and assume.
