Cargo or Riders?
 
Semi-truck flips over on 148th Ave NE; no injuries and no traffic tickets issued

Will this excuse get you out of a preventable if you roll your truck in an intersection?

Wow, good thing she wasn't just a few miles further south in Bellevue. Those Bellevue cops don't let you get away with anything.

She got a break because she was a woman? I don't know. If it happened like she says, she would have been better off to hit the oncoming car than to take the chance of rolling?

I'm sorry but I've never seen a truck at a near stop flip over by hitting the brakes. Then again, I'm assuming she was at a near stop as she was making the turn.

Missing the gag, so far . . cargo or riders?

In her defense, sort of . . Flying J on I-80, western PA can't think of the town . . I watched a guy try to back into a parking spot at, what appeared to be, an acceptable speed until he raised one side of his tandems . . he was over steering but not to the point of scraping his farings . . those things can be top heavy.
