Retired, but still loving it.

He walked unscathed? That is one solid built cab.
That speed... 120-140 kmph?
Simply a miracle

I still don't understand what happened... and it seems no one else does either... I hoped you knew, 'cause it looked damn scary!

Driver and company owner recently got his dump truck out of the shop, for what, I don't know and the driver probably doesn't want to say why his truck was in the repair shop (more than likely potential legal issues if he did say anything).
As he was driving along, the rear axle suddenly popped off the truck due to the rough bridge transitions and possible bad repair job (assuming), the axle got caught up underneath the truck possibly causing a major handling issue before the truck slid and toppled. The driver was buckled in (assuming) and during the crash the windshield came off entirely and the driver was able to walk straight out of the truck where the windshield was.
Driver is not going to say much about what happened because well..... you know how insurance companies are... so just let the insurance company figure it out for themselves.
I think the repair shop must've done something to the rear axle and did a bad job, if the repair shop offered the cheapest price to the driver.... well.... as I say.... ya git wat ya paid for.
Driver sure did get a Free Ride though.... and I am sure he don't want that again.
But as I said before... I like that guy's taste in music.
Well.... I guess that was more descriptive than the news article.

Maybe the interaxle drive shaft fall down and cause the detachement of the third axle.
