bumpstop325 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2005 well i was going around aroundabout turning right, so i was going right round. things to consider, the trailer has 10,000kgs of wool on board. that is 60 bails of wool. tare weight of the trailer is about 7,000kgs. now, 10+7= 17ton all up.The round about was a one lane and small, about the size of east coast bay one. but with 4 roads coming off it. the axle configuration of the trailer was 1 at the front and 2 at the back. see pic. when i was going round the rear alxe set hit the inside of the roundabout, which has a big lip on it. that plus the negative camber on the road, plus my speed of 5km/h and the high COG of the trailer were all factors in the roll over. I have been talking to one of my trucking mates and he said i should have a letter in the mail from the pol pol and appear in court in about 5months. but im covered as im apart of the union and they have high up lawers to get me off it. sweet. Things to remember: it was just the trailer that rolled. nobody was hurt. i didnt not hit a car only took out a lamppost. i will post up the newpaper article soon. the only thing that got hurt was my ego.
