Coach Topples Over on Highway

Buses, coaches and trucks cause some of the most spectacular crashes you will ever see, simply because they carry a lot of inertia around and cannot be stopped easily. Furthermore, all the aforementioned types of vehicles have quite a high center of gravity, and can easily be toppled over by inexperienced drivers or even a strong crosswind.
The latter is what may have initiated the pronounced wobble seen in this video. The coach was being driven at highway speed, and at one point it begins to wobble, and the driver only seems to make things worse. After swerving from lane to lane, while trying to get the vehicle back in line, the driver’s efforts eventually fail, and the coach lands on its side, hits the outer guardrail, and then turns around, facing the way it came from.

We don`t really know if it was driver error, a very high crosswind, or just the driver fooling around and things getting out of hand, but the result is clear to say, and rather painful - we do hope the coach was empty, though, yet we don`t have any specific details.
