Where bad choices make good stories
Great opportunity to adjust his brakes.
I'm not a driver, but somewhere in past years somebody said something about weight distribution and axles. Does that still hold?
It looks like a steel coil headed for the slitter. Guessing around 20,000 pounds.
More than that. Legal payload on a 5 axle semi flatbed would be around 46,000 pounds. On a six axle it's probably pushing 64,000, depending on how heavy the truck and trailer are.
