Just wanted to share this with everyone, since so many of us haul. http://calgary.ctvnews.ca/video?clipId=364928&playlistId=1.1823986&binId=1.1201914&playlistPageNum=1

Looks like a pro, but may have been luck. I figure he got flipped out of his seat while still holding the wheel.

That was an "E" ticket ride at Disney.

Very impressive! You also have to give credit to those right outside tires for handling all that weight!!!

And the very convenient side road for the drive to turn on to!I bet this driver needed a new set of pants!!

Incredible driving skills video, trailer almost flipped.

I'm 33 y/o and I know what an 'E' ticket ride was. But I'm a Disney fan so I supose I don't count.

A long time ago, you had to buy a book of tickets. The "E" tickets were the better, thrilling rides (Yeah I am dating myself a bit here...thinking it was like 40 years ago when I was a kid ). So lets say a merry go round was an "A" and a roller coaster was an"E". The booklet had so many of each different tickets.

I know what it means and I also don't! LOL where does the E come in at? If we're talking Disney, the the E must mean expensive! I've heard the saying before.

Luck was on the drivers side too, glad it didn't roll.

Thanks for the clicky. Must have had some sort of flat-ish access to the field? A deep ditch would have had a different outcome. I agree, the driver needs a bonus!

Very fast thinking. I'm really surprised he was able to pull it off with the trailer that far gone. And I agree, there was no side road for him to pull off on. He just kept the trailer from laying on it's side. Would have been an ugly picture had that been a bridge or ravine.

Driver did not go down the side road, he went beyond it across a field. But yes indeed, incredible driving. Very well done. Truck was empty, so tires were nowhere near capacity. Empty was why it blew over in the first place. Give that driver a bonus, say, half the tens of thousands of dollars in damage he saved somebody.
