Truck Driver Makes A Great Save In High Winds

This video shows how a tractor trailer nearly flipped in heavy winds but the driver made a radical move to keep it upright.

Great save!

I've never had a trailer almost go over in the wind like that but I've been blown around from lane to lane by heavy winds on snow-covered roads. One time the crosswind on a snowy highway was strong enough that my trailer was out in the hammer lane and my tractor was still in the right hand lane. I just stayed on the gas, the gust of wind died down, and the trailer fell back in line behind me. If I had been on dry roads it would have done what that trailer did in the video above.
