Jackknife with Hensley
Saw this today in I-96 outside of Grand Rapids, MI today. No ambulance so hopefully everyone was OK. Hensley

A downhill curve with ANY hitch and incorrectly adjusted/applied brakes can push the rearend around on any truck. Even a fifth wheel.
I personally know someone coming down a fairly steep paved driveway. As he transitioned onto the road he let off his brakes, and the 12k fifth wheel pushed him across the street and down the hill untill he thought to hit the trailer brakes.
Given the right conditions, a trailer can push the rearend. An improperly adjust WDH can cause the same thing.
