Been there, done that!! Our rig was properly set up, 3/4 Ford diesel, clear straight road, 55 mph, nice weather--all good. A mechanical issue came up with the right rear axle and the trailer started to sway. As the old C&W song goes, " And Pfffttt, she was gone." Luckily, we ended up totaled in the median and not into the Columbia River!
I won't comment on the article herein, but have learned that reckless driving, improperly set up rigs, and mechanical breakdowns can bite you hard.
Things happen that make you scratch your head. The good news is that we bought another RV and have enjoyed thousands of miles of happy travels since the accident.
