Default Re: Tragic 69 Camaro Crash of the Year !!!!!!!

Brand new and worked fine. I towed that trailer after it had flipped 700 miles home with NO problems Brakes worked great we both have the same controller. Again there was no damage to the A front frame of the trailer which would have been there from jacknifing together. My speculation from being there and tring to figure it out with people at the scene for hours was as jeff moved sharply to the left lane the ball broke seperating the trailer , the momentum pushed the nose of the trailer into the left rear bumper throwing everything into a backwards move rotating the truck to strike the guardrail with the drivers side doors as confirmed by Jeff. The saftey chains pulled everything around and as the brakes locked it went down the ravine tumbling until the chains gave up. remember the brakes have a 2 second delay and this happend in a split second. The truck looks like the car and the trailer went right over the roof and ejected the car as it rolled for the second time.
