It’s always a good idea to keep a safe distance from a large truck carrying an oversized load on the road – you never know what and when something will happen, and if it does, you’ll want to stay as far away as possible.

The whereabouts of this accident are unknown, but the road signs and type of vehicles seen in the hazy video point to the USA or possibly Canada. The only information provided by the uploader, Harrison M. is the description that reads, “Dash cam video from an escort truck from my aunt’s work”.

If you pause the clip before the lorry tips over, you’ll see that the rear end of the vehicle gently swayed to the shoulder of the road and hit what looks like a metal rail on the ground, causing the accident.
