looks like it, another thing to consider is just because there metal there now doesn't mean there is suppose to be, years of graders cutting and pushing the metal out onto the grass verge means it metal on top of mud basically no solid structural basecorse like there is on most metal roads

@Micky Duck truck stayed up right, he had only loaded 200m up the road. Shoulder might have collapsed but plenty of road on the left hand side

The good old shoulder collapse...

There was a bit about it on the telly last night.
Its an alternative route with the main route closed since the cyclone.

Locals are all saying the route is not fit for purpose.

Apparently the road collapsed underneath the truck

That one on tv in my district its hardly fit for a car. Its narrow with logging trucks running on it, all good if you have a rt and trucks are using them. The bluff this council have closed is a joke. the 500m road under the bluff ok been put back in since cyclone but there is now cracks in the bluff above. Get in there and blow it.
hold on this council is a joke before and after this years weather events.

so an ID ten tea error then........ the marks behind trailer,dirictly under upraised corner are gradual pull off road marks,no swerve or slide visible... brain fart moment that caught him out..there but for the grace of God go I......is the ony way to look at that....99 times out of hundy he would have got away with it.
I heard tell of a certain driver trainer who stopped on verge for a pee,and trailer did same and ended up in ditch...apparently he was out of truck,member in hand as it slowly tipped...... you just gots to laugh.

I thought trailer would have to be checked over before been towed out off town? lucky if he was going 30km

a visual on towing eye....and drive slowly.... empty its not a huge weight so little to go wrong if towing hitch stays intact.... pretty sure it WILL be getting a good going over once back into a workshop.

@Micky Duck over 400km away

@kukuwai the bluff our council want fix is above the digger in video.
