The accident involved a truck tractor, whose driver was inexperienced in the driving of trucks. The truck approaching an intersection applied his brakes harder than normal because a car ahead of him was stopping for the light. The sudden deceleration caused the tilt cab of the vehicle to tilt and rotate about its hinges.
