Off-Roading Tractor Trailer

[Wardster]

Was travelling to Paducah, Kentucky this afternoon for work and recorded the video below of a tractor trailer running off the road. He did a good job of recovering, but he peppered me with dust, debris, and part of a barrel that passed beneath the truck. This happened on I-71S just north of Louisville, Kentucky. Fortunately, there was no damage to my truck or the NL, but I can't say for certain if the same is true for the driver's seat.

Wow. At least he handled it right. Hammer down and yank that trailer straight!

Not proud of that fact, and I chalked this experience up as a lesson for me too. Spent the next four hours being overly cautious from the comfort of the right lane.

Everyone is lucky he recovered back to pavement ok. It could have been disastrous.
