if you look close you'll see that his trailer was already sideways before he starts to pull up!!! The driver tipped that trailer!!!!! And so you know I've driven frame less from a coal burning power plant dumping in a landfill it was never on level ground always holes in the ground out in the middle of a pad that was the size of 20 football fields squared the wind alone was enough to throw your trailer. I've had to climb up into the nose with a shovel while the trailer swayed from side to side driver! I've had to have an excavator scrape the load out of the bucket because the load I proped froze up in the trailer overnight. long story short/ I FORGOT MORE SHIT THAN THAN MOST OF YOU FUCKS WILL EVER KNOW! 20+ years in this trucking game and still grinding!

dude almost got smushed

Also, wouldn't want to dump a trailer without a back window. Can't tell if that truck had one.
-
Did that guy just say "you can't flip a trailer on blacktop" immediately after watching a video EXACTLY THAT!?!
-
I read a lot of the comments and a lot of them are just flat out wrong ! You CAN'T flip a trailer frameless or not on black top that was driver error. He has probably been there a million times and didn't get out and check his rear tires and one was too close to the edge and that's all it takes . But you have to flip them yourself and it it's not as easy as you would think. (on blacktop)

The frameless trailers are 2-3 tons lighter than the frame type. Owner operators love them because they get paid by the ton hauled. When you make 6-8 trips a day, that's getting paid for 12 to 24 more tons per day = $$$
-
why did it flim out ?
-
That one wasn't hard to find, was it? (Frameless dump rolling over?) LOL . There just retarded that's all. "A mans got to know his Limitations." Dirty Harry. (The dirtiest)
-
americans whit those dumb no frame dumpers.
-
soon as he moved, tippin tippin!!!
-
Don't see the need for such a long Tipper trailer - If the trailer was shorter there'd be less chance of it falling over. Uk tippers are around 36-40 feet long and they still occasionally go over for the inexperienced driver. Feeling the pain.
-
yep,, it went over allright,,
-
It s the worst trailer frame wich i can ever see. All of them are pices of rubish!!!

Anyone with knowledge of dump trailers knows that you never dump sand/dirt with you rear tires on an edge......you may get away with it with gravel. Drivers fault.....

Wondering what the repair cost would be an a accident like this?
-
First thing is kick the trailing axle tyres, if one is flat, the batteries are about to be flat as well, as the truck will be lying on them. Then the whole thang needs t` be straight! Then open the tail gate/ door ( pick one ) even with control from the cab, if you can`t see it swing or any product comin` out, drop her down and don`t be no clown, so ya pants don`t get brown. Tryin` to tip jacknifed with the gate closed will just get you on Utube.
-
have to say that the driver allowing pedestrians to be that close to the truck while dumping indicates that the driver might be an incompetent asshole.
-
Trevor...do you run end-dump? The one thing you want to do is get the material out of the nose of the trailer to reduce the center of gravity...when you hit the 4th stage you should be shedding material....if not, you've got way bigger problems....like digging the the next couple hours.

He forgot to unlock the tailgate. No pile behind truck. Opps!
