Truck full of sand tipping over at MGC

[Oilerfan1961]

DOH!

[1rugerlcp]

trucks fine trailer is junk ... i hate them trailers my trailer hinges at the back so all the wheels stay on the ground if he had a trailer like mine he might not had flop over ...just my $.02

[51supernova50]

Ya got to hand it to the engineering of the trailer not to pull the truck over with it.

[Troxgirl06]

i bet all the people walking around the lot wont be there next time a truck is dumping

[gmellis]

frame-less dump trailer

[Purplepete39]

Man, that sucks :/

[discocreator76]

crappy american design...

[Sting3733]

@discocreator76 Better than crappy British Reliant Robin.

[SuperJoebacon]

i hate framless dumps, i sure would have put it down before i moved.

[TequilaAssassin4eva]

shit....that's dangerous work! I gotta give credit to those who do this for a living and not kill someone

[keaokole1]

i hate those type end dumps too.....always watch your load. never get too comfortable

[samdon815]

I hate those frameless trailers.

[wjanisheck]

I drive a frame less and it real easy...read the instructions on the can " make sure tractor and trailer are in a straight line"... "only raise trailer on even ground"...c'mon its not that hard!

[4624tone]

LOL, these commentors have no clue...I've been dumpin frameless buckets more then half my life, he sould have never been so far under that roof,1st..tractor was turned to left of trailer,2, Ok but gotta get up to stage six atleast or seven so nose completely broke, driver was gonna hit the roof so went to pull up a little, still had probly 12 ton in the nose that hadnt broke yet , then pulled the tractor to the left which tilted the frameless bucket and over she went, thats what i see..

[mrfirewolf]

i cant believe they still let these things on the roads... every time you look one is laying on its side.. you want perfectly level.. and i mean perfectly.. ground within .3CM of perfect level... if i need to move lots of dirt ill just make an extra trip with a dump truck... less time wasted flopping it back on its wheels.

[4624tone]

Bucket drivers, why did he back so far under that roof? You kknow damm well you cant get "up", for the dog box to break under there, driver was tryin to please customer, gettin in the bin..without regardd for his rig , people, bld..fuck that, you get load in your lot, push it up yourself...never ever do this.

[D13fledermause]

It looks as though they're dumping it into like a car wash or something

[Heartjager]

i bet they were like OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH shit

[regdapimp06]

Shit I forgot to trip the tailgate switch.

[MattKondrath]

My cocaine!!!

[gsjtrucking]

you never know until you drive one.. truck is fine trailer is an easy fix.. he tried to save it..

[swiftyjim2]

those tip over axle trailers should be banned. Even in the hands of an experianced operator they still go over too easy.

[MrOlred77]

@swiftyjim2 Until you drive and operate one yourself which i assume you have not?? there not that bad if you know what your doing i have been driving a end dump for 6 years and had a couple of close calls and almost been killed by a end dump trailer from some other driver not paying attention and trying to dump on unlevel ground next to my rig to help out the loader at the quarry so he didnt have to move it from the overload pile to where it belonged and end result was a twisted piece of junk.

[joeylenseigne120]

damn my trailer lol

[trampledone]

that would be embarrasing to explain to the boss.

[milldabeast519]

what a stupid ass designed trailer



[ChoonDSW]

iM SURE THAT FUCKED HIS DAY UP!

[cardude365]

driver error.....

[josephmarks1]

what were those people standing so close to that truck while it was dumping. are you stupid!? I always make sure when i dump that the truck next to me is at least 50 feet or more away from me. the same goes for people too. this accident was driver error.

[JSeely218]

If you look close he dropped the trailer wheels in a hole and had to pull it over a hump that caused it to flop over.

[DJZ1987]

@JSeely218 actually, he didn't, there's no hole there, just a slight grade from left to right and back to front

[JSeely218]

@DJZ1987 - either way it had to suck!. I wonder if it would have made a difference if he was out further when he started? I pulled end dump for two years and "never" let my guard down, the moment you get comfy doing this that's when it get's ya. I had some close calls myself but if the box went up crooked my eyes never left it for a second. I always made sure the product was "centered" and back 2 - 3 feet from the nose, #2 scrap wasn't too bad, threw car rims or what ever was handy in the hole.

[Sk8BoardTrucker]

@DJZ1987 if it was a slight grade then that's not what caused it to tip...it might have helped but being that it was a load of sand i would say the sand was wet...got stuck in the trailer and the rest is history...have hauled lots of that shit in end dumps and when it's wet it can be pretty hairy...have hauled tons upon tons of sand and other materials in end dumps though without tipping one over...no matter what happened it's the drivers faul...he should have known.

[chris91wd]

i think he's doing it wrong.

[johnparkimp3]

It may take a bit of time before "Walking Floor", trailers become widely used but they do stop this sort of accident happening. Slower to unload but so much safer.

[tippmannallstar]

boggles my mind when i see clueless tits walking around a trailer thats dumping, or, 2 end dumps both dumping right beside each other.

[24preacherboy]

There are only two classes of dump truck drivers out there:

Those who have tipped their trucks

and those who will tip their trucks.

[jlat72]

@24preacherboy so anyone who drives a dump truck will eventually tip it over?! what a stupid statement!!! let me guess, you stock shelves in a grocery store?!?! dumb ass!

[24preacherboy]

@jlat72 Let me guess, your the guy in the truckstop that cleans out the showers? That must be the extent of your truck driving experience. By the way, it wasnt me that said it. I was quoting the owner of a company who is in the bulk business. He owns several trucks.

Dumb Idot!! or should I say Moron because you have no clue.

[jlat72]

@24preacherboy i drive a truck stockboy!! i know plenty of drivers who have never rolled a truck! i've never rolled one either! so, you go back to stocking shelves preacherboy!! your beyond clueless!! i don't even know why i responded to this, your a waste of time, but now i'm ignoring you. enjoy your pathetic pointless life, loser!

[4624tone]

@jlat72 why resond to this ass.. knock on wood, 23 yrs never rolled a trailer, its these unexpericed they let into our trade thru 10,000dollar schools who have no clue,, he startes to pull away in fifth stage, never, hit seven so nose has broke first, rule one in dump buckets..

[24preacherboy]

@jlat72

Heres a statement from another video:

Thats a recipe for disaster. im guessing buddy is outside the truck while it dumps so he can run as she falls over.Design flaw #1 the wheels should stay on the ground while dumping.They say there is only 2 kinds of end dumps.Those who have fallen over and those that will

Guess I'm not the only one who thinks like this.

[BNSF2184]

wow. I saw a semi tip over back in June. I was at a stop light and all of a sudden I look up and I saw something fall. I was "oooh shit that guy just tipped over" I hope he didnt lose his job.

[Webber362]

was the driver and the truck ok

[DJZ1987]

@Webber362 The driver was fine, the truck, not so much.

[KenworthPeterbilt]

@DJZ1987 whats wrong with the truck? looks fine to me, maybe not the trailer

[vlasktom]

@KenworthPeterbilt the way it tipped, the fifth wheel would be trashed

[jrb2014]

did it roll on nem people?

[DJZ1987]

@jrb2014 No, and it barely touched the jeep parked next to it.
