Narrative

A articulating Volvo A40F water truck with a full load of water was traveling on a haul road. The truck was not meeting any traffic at the time he allowed the trucks right front tire to veer off the edge of the road. The operator tried to overcorrect to bring it back on the road. This caused the water truck to roll on it's side. The operator sustained a broken collarbone.
