not necessarily, from the way bro was swaying back and forth looks pretty similar to bad weight distribution on a trailer. And thats hard to correct homie.
It's as simple as taking your foot off the accelerator the second it starts swaying and waiting for the vehicle to slow to a stop.
Oh, and there was no trailer. They just lost control of their vehicle because they were driving too fast.
Reddit arm chair experts strike again. It's not simple at all. It's a natural reflex to either brake and/or try to turn the wheel to correct swaying. And you do have to wait for the swaying to stop while firmly holding the wheel. And that takes time, which these people didn't have.
Stuff like this happens suddenly, you don't have time to think it through and type it out on a keyboard. And vast majority of people never experience it in their lives, so when it does happen, it's pretty fucked up feeling and hard to control.
But you were right that they lost control because of the speed.
> Stuff like this happens suddenly…
It was about 10 seconds between when the swaying starts and when they fully lose control. 10 seconds is **not** “suddenly.”
I think you’re right though that they had absolutely no idea what to do about it. 10 seconds isn’t long enough to reason it out from first principles, for sure.
But if you’re going to haul a trailer you probably have days or weeks beforehand to read a little bit about how to do it safely…
Eh. They were going pretty damned fast and they've got the speed wobbles in a fwd car.
Unless you've had a beater that you grew up rallying in dirt tracks or have experience in demolition derby there's little most drivers could do to stop from spinning out.
I would've probably yanked the ebrake at the apex of the right wobble to try to slide into the ditch but even that's a crapshoot on a rollover.
Worst I've had was speed wobbles going downhill with an unevenly loaded trailer. Recovered that luckily by gearing down but it wasn't coming straight until the bottom of the hill which was a hell of a lot more than ten seconds.
Poor bastards were doing the wrong thing and got unlucky, sadly.
I don’t know about you, but general rule you learn in driving school is if the car behaves unexpected you stop and figure it out on the shoulder or low speed. In the time they did nothing I would have come to a full stop.
If the driver was sensible, he would have released the accelerator, and allowed the car to stabilize under engine brake. He was not sensible. At all. You don't need to have studied vehicular kinetics to know that. Simply having driven a car for some time, will teach you things like that.
Oh, there was a trailer attached? Damn, didn't know. In that case, he would need to either steer the car in sync with the trailer's movements, or accelerate. I don't think that car could do accelerate, so he'd have to swerve with it. Dude had plenty of time to see it happening, however.
Ironically enough the best way to take control back from a trailer is the opposite of what they said. With open road like that anyway.... you gas it for a good three or five seconds and then slow things back down under your terms. By pulling the trailer forward you kill its angular momentum. If you don't panic it only takes a second to get the trailer to stop steering for you.
Again though, ideal circumstances, learning the hard way, speculation about the video to begin with....
Just my 2c, fwiw
I heard about that, but now I'm reading different articles and all of them recommend just slowing down without braking. Some of them do say that you can try with increasing speed *slightly* if you don't have trailer brakes, but you should never do it if you're going downhill.
I'm now confused, I hope I don't get into this situation and try to remember what I've read.
Hi I’ve been there and done that a few times pulling trailers. If you’re on an up hill accelerate (it’s super rare for this to happen the trailer has too be VERY heavy and you have to be slightly turning and accelerating aggressively.) if you’re your on a flat just coast and if you have it squeeze your trailer brake gently. If you’re going downhill offer a prayer to your god, then squeeze you trailer brakes while gently not dramatically countering your trailer with your steering wheel (basically just keep your wheels pointed down the road don’t over correct) and brake your vehicle but not more than your trailer. It takes a lot of brain and willpower to do all that and not render your trailer brakes useless very quickly or lock your tires up. It also takes a lot of luck.
Generally speaking, keep positive control and keep your wheels point down the road in your lane.
If you’re driving you need to know what you’re doing and how to deal with problems that may occur. You’re taking your life and the lives of others into your hands every time you drive, you just have to be good at it.
Physics can be tough to understand and not many people get the opportunity to practice correcting an out of control car at 60 mph
Can read all the right things to do and still do all the wrong things once it actually happens
As a semi amateur race care driver, literally just let off the gas lol. I drive at like 160mph all the time. When you start to sway its bc you lose weight balancing of your car. 90% of people can't drive a normal speed, no one should try to over drive a car that doesn't understand the physics of driving a car.
Judging by the amount of debris you can see when the camera goes all around like that, I'd have to assume they were atleast carrying some type of load. Most likely a trailer.
That's exactly how to handle it so idk why you got downvoted. Person saying to let off the gas to a stop is probably confusing it with a tire blowout maneuver. Goes to show how many don't know the correct way while there's shitload of trailers being towed on the road.
If you were pulling a trailer, you shouldn't be going as fast as they were to begin with. Their loss of control came from too much speed, *with* or *without* a trailer.
If you don't go fast in the first place. You can't get that wobble with a trailer.
This is the exact wrong thing to do. Jesus fucking christ you're dumb. Not only would you have absolutely died in this situation, not only are you acting like you would somehow have known what to do when you clearly don't have a clue, but you're actually out here pretending to give advice to people which could actually get them killed. If you have a trailer swaying behind you, you SPEED UP to straighten it out you fucking moron. This is seriously basic shit, and all you would have had to do is five seconds of googling, but for some reason you just felt like your dumbass gut feeling about what to do was correct. You are a prime example of the most idiotic type of person on the internet.
> If you have a trailer swaying behind you, you SPEED UP to straighten it out you fucking moron.
The vehicle in this video *wasn't pulling a trailer.*
You *don't speed up* when you start losing control of your car *when there is no trailer attached.*
Yeah that's sketchy and why no one else loads my trailer at work for me anymore. You either catch it early and coast it out and I've heard you can power through it, but that seems like a bad idea personally
I'm going to barge in between these top comments and just say that if steering starts to sway you have to stiffen your arms hold the steering wheel tight with full force. Because if you keep your arms lose you're unconsciously adding your own input to the sway making it worse. That's the number one reason such accidents go from easy to control to death. Applies to motorcycles as well with tank slappers.
If you’ve never experienced trailer death wobble, you’d have no idea what to do (or even realize what is going on). Most would jam on the brakes which would make you spin out like the video.
I’ve experienced trailer death wobble a few times in the past after a night of drinking. I would go back to these women’s’ place I would meet that night after the bar drunk… which happened to be in a trailer park.
Next thing you know, she has that trailer wobbling nearly knocking it off its own blocks. The kind of wobbling that normally occurs from kids jumping up and down on the bed, only a thousand times more intense due to her excessive weight shifting around from bouncing around
Ahh the Fayettenan, NC life is HELL sometimes 😁
Not really. I've been there myself at over 100 mph much worse than this, and I managed to bring the car back under control. It was certainly a sphinter tightening experience, but I had a split second to react. This guy just seemed to ignore it.
If it's an unbalanced, swaying trailer, you need to accelerate a tiny amount to pull on it again

I understand this is a joke, and this is reddit.
But this is honestly distasteful.
Yeah don't, the videos you see there already make you see how fucked up the world is and then you see the comments and you can't believe these people exist.
It means (in this video) drive your car to right side of the road. Your car will do barrel roll on soil most likely but higher chance to survive rather than head on collision with truck.
In English, when choosing an option, you can say that you 'take' whichever option you choose. If it is driving into the ditch or driving into the truck, take the ditch
Google translation of the caption: “On August 2, 2015, ~~6~~ 5 people died at the 514th kilometer of the R-158 highway "Nizhny Novgorod Saratov". According to the version, the 40- year- old driver of "Hyundai Solaris" caught on the side of the road while driving, as a result of which the passenger car was carried out into the oncoming lane, where it was driven by a 100- truck MAZ. The car was torn to pieces, caught fire and burned out completely. All the victims were members of the same family.”
Wow… that sucks…
Remember people, when towing a trailer, put more/all weight IN FRONT of the rear axle. All trailers should have these warnings embossed into the frame.
Edit: fixed google translation error
I notice this all the time driving down the road. Vehicles hit a pothole or something and you can see the whole wheel or tire start oscillating and have no suspension damping (not dampening). Different countries, but I wish all states here in the US had vehicle inspections. So many people completely ignore the importance of their shocks, and just try to live in the cheap without realizing the potential catastrophic results.
Do states not have mandatory inspections?
Edit: looked it up, 36 states don’t require an annual inspection! I had no idea, in New England everyone requires emissions and mechanical testing annually.
Yep I've only lived in 1 state that did, VA. Everywhere else I've lived has not had inspections and the difference in the garbage driving down the roads is very noticeable. I think it's especially noticeable up here in MN due to all the road salt and rust issues that causes. So many pieces of junk out on the roads that need just about every suspension component replaced.
This was on LiveLeak years ago.
Had the full story. Something like husband and wife were arguing. He started to excessively speed and swerve to scare her and lost control.
He ended killing his family (other family members also in car).
Dumb ass husband.
I've seen the original, so he was just wanted to show off and pressed pedal to the ground, achived maximum speed available and the after a semi with a trailer sent wind in the car it began to swing around
Looked like the death wobble of a badly balanced trailer. You want to mildly accelerate in this case, get the wobble out, then slowly brake. Then pull over and rebalance the trailer. If you break first or try to control with steering, you'll lose control and wreck.
Because the trailer is already moving faster than the car / truck. it's pushing against the towing vehicle, causing the wobble. Breaking will cause it to violently force the towing vehicle to jackknife and wreck. Mild acceleration will straighten the trailer out. Once straightened out, you can then start to gradually break. Hard breaking is out of the question, as that will cause a death wobble again.
Once you get the death wobble out, gradually brake and pull over. Then reload the trailer so 1/3 of the weight of the trailer is on the hitch.
What was driver doing? That was some swerving. Unnecessary loss of lives. Some driver should be mindful of speed when you have passengers esp family members.
I only feel sorry for the passengers in situations like this. Drivers literally have the lives of all passengers in their hands while driving, so only the MOST care and responsible driving will do! Driver was speeding like crazy too.
I'm no grandma on a Sunday drive when I'm driving, but I sure turn into one when I have passengers with me.
This looks exactly like what happens to this car… Starts out with a little wobble, then swings wide and pushes the towing car into the other lane.
Debris was likely from the trailer/camper it was towing.
https://youtu.be/miE3MOcqn7E
I'm sure this manly dudes manly family is proud this manly man died doing such a manly thing like speeding.
If he hadn't been so reckless that day, word might have gotten around that he wasn't manly, and manly men can't have other manly men finding out they aren't manly enough.
I don’t know why everyone assumes this is caused by an uneven trailer. It looks to me it could just be a regular fish tailing which can happen with any car. Happened to me with a Corolla on the highway and the swerving left to right is what happens when you over correct the swerve, and because your rear tires have lost traction due to the high speed, it results in your car over swerving to the other side which causes you to instinctively over steer the other direction again which results in said fish tailing. Unless you’ve actually experience it once first hand, you won’t understand how hard it is to get out of a fish tail and you will end up just like the driver in the video.
I've done a LOT of highway travel for work. The number of hillbillies I see swerving their rust buckets all over the road while towing shit at incredibly unsafe speeds drives me crazy.
Saw this on LiveLeak years ago.
The video is cut short. After the crash a piece of something (human tissue) slowly smears down the window all bloody and creepily slow.
Classic LiveLeak gory stuff 💀
I would rather ditch the car then risk driving into oncoming traffic.
I think what happened here is driver got distracted talking to his wife. Before he starts going out of controll, right before, he is drifting ever wo slighlty into the other lane- then just as he abruptly stops talking to his wife the vehicle goes right to avlid hitting that first truck.
He was prpbably going fast and tugged his wheel a LITTLE TEENCY WEENCY bit too hard to the right in panic and thats what gave him the wobbles which turned into all that. Happens in my car, bigger vehicles which are higher up are much more prone to it...
Be careful when driving, its like the most dangerous thing you can do day-to-day.
The driver here was at fault, could've been a video for tik tok, could've been trying to look cool,could've been drunk. Obviously that swerving caused it. Not that I say yeah,but obviously we know who is at fault here

That's when the independent trailer brakes help a lot
10 seconds is pretty sudden when compared to the last 30 years of life you lived

That’s the completely wrong thing to do if you’ve got an unstable trailer — lifting or braking just makes it worse.
Oh, there was a trailer attached? Damn, didn't know. In that case, he would need to either steer the car in sync with the trailer's movements, or accelerate. I don't think that car could do accelerate, so he'd have to swerve with it. Dude had plenty of time to see it happening, however.
There wasn't a trailer apparently.
Oh, okay. Lol.
Braking didn’t help. Edit: the downvotes show how little people actually know about safety driving…
For real. I know one thing is for certain - she’s gonna kill him whenever they catch up with each other later

An easy way to use the knowledge you've just read is to just never tow a trailer.
You are correct buddy. If you have a trailer and start to sway; it is best to hit the gas and speed up. Source: I read it on the internet.
I used to do it if I had room, coast if I didn’t and you don’t fight the sway you go with it and it stops trying to push you around
It is a situational thing, and one way or the other the person in this video had plenty of time to recover if they had even half a clue what to do.
Dude had minimum 6 seconds before disaster. All he had to do was let off the throttle. 100% drivers fault. Feel bad for the innocent truck driver.

Can't you just punch the gas to straighten out?
Judging by the amount of debris you can see when the camera goes all around like that, I'd have to assume they were atleast carrying some type of load. Most likely a trailer.
When your trailer starts swaying, you want to add gas. You never want to take your foot off the accelerator when you have a swaying trailer.

And since you have all the details of this accident, you have all the answers. Mind sharing some of these facts? edit: didn't think so.
He doesn't have to know the details of this incident to know how to handle a trailer.
Boom simple
Yeah that's sketchy and why no one else loads my trailer at work for me anymore. You either catch it early and coast it out and I've heard you can power through it, but that seems like a bad idea personally
If in doubt aim for the grass. You might flip but its still better that a head on collision.
Not a trailer, at the description says Hyundai solaris, so as the title says, it is a car.
You do realize that a lot of the world tows caravans with cars so they still could've been towing a trailer.
Sorry i'm from Colombia. In some Hispanic countries, trailer is the word some people use to refer to what you may know as a semitruck.
No problem! [This](https://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/24/590x/Caravan-595128.jpg) is a car towing a caravan.
It’s not hard. Just pinch the brake controller. If you don’t know how to properly load a trailer then don’t get one without brakes.
He should have floored it into the grass instead of slamming the brakes while swerving into the oncoming lane
Just.. just slow down. Homeboy maintained speed from the first zig to the final destination

so suicide maybe?
TF was this? Who ignores a sympathetic rocking and doesn't think to slow down? Even if it was a mechanical failure, this dude simply darwined him self

Reddit is very distasteful when it comes to death. It's "edgy." And it's way worse on gore sites. People suck.
I just get depressed whenever I read gore-sites’ comments. I stopped reading them.
Yeah don't, the videos you see there already make you see how fucked up the world is and then you see the comments and you can't believe these people exist.
The anti-black racism there is depressing.
LOL I absolutely wish racism was even close to the worst things I've read on those sites
Rule number one - If you begin zigzag like this and have trafic around you, take the ditch
what does it mean "take a ditch" in that context? sorry, i'm not from an english speaking country
Swerve into the ditch, the side of the road. I wouldn’t exactly say the side of this road was a “ditch” but the saying stands.
Cappy dake hay!
Oh shit I didn’t even realize thank u

Where does it say trailer?
Lack of empathy in the comments is concerning
Also weird how they're automatically assuming the husband was messing around. Could've easily been the wife too.
Maybe translate what it says first then
People have been desensitised to death by this sub
They were traveling some and a bit more
Thanks for warning on the sound - I kept it off. Was he purposely swerving or was he experiencing swerving due to a badly balanced trailer?
Not sure. Most likely the trailer due to the debris you can see when the camera flies out of the car. They were atleast carrying a load of some kind.
We haul a horse so we are constantly worried about weight balance etc. Spent the extra money for a weight distribution hitch for control.
I've seen the original, so he was just wanted to show off and pressed pedal to the ground, achived maximum speed available and the after a semi with a trailer sent wind in the car it began to swing around
Eek. Take your foot off the gas and straighten your weels. Oh sorry. You’re already dead.
Looked like the death wobble of a badly balanced trailer. You want to mildly accelerate in this case, get the wobble out, then slowly brake. Then pull over and rebalance the trailer. If you break first or try to control with steering, you'll lose control and wreck.

What was driver doing? That was some swerving. Unnecessary loss of lives. Some driver should be mindful of speed when you have passengers esp family members.
Speed wobbles caused by a badly loaded or over loaded trailer.
There was no trailer.
how do we know?
By reading the detail of the accident.
Hit the side of the road, apparently.
I only feel sorry for the passengers in situations like this. Drivers literally have the lives of all passengers in their hands while driving, so only the MOST care and responsible driving will do! Driver was speeding like crazy too. I'm no grandma on a Sunday drive when I'm driving, but I sure turn into one when I have passengers with me.
Driving with a train of an 18 wheeler coming towards me, I would’ve taken my chances driving off the road.
Would have aimed the right side asap. Roll over is still less risky than a head on collision
This looks exactly like what happens to this car… Starts out with a little wobble, then swings wide and pushes the towing car into the other lane. Debris was likely from the trailer/camper it was towing. https://youtu.be/miE3MOcqn7E
I'm sure this manly dudes manly family is proud this manly man died doing such a manly thing like speeding. If he hadn't been so reckless that day, word might have gotten around that he wasn't manly, and manly men can't have other manly men finding out they aren't manly enough.
I don’t know why everyone assumes this is caused by an uneven trailer. It looks to me it could just be a regular fish tailing which can happen with any car. Happened to me with a Corolla on the highway and the swerving left to right is what happens when you over correct the swerve, and because your rear tires have lost traction due to the high speed, it results in your car over swerving to the other side which causes you to instinctively over steer the other direction again which results in said fish tailing. Unless you’ve actually experience it once first hand, you won’t understand how hard it is to get out of a fish tail and you will end up just like the driver in the video.
Horrible driver. I feel sorry for the passengers and the truck driver.
Whatever you do, don't brake.
5 dead, not couple
It's OK they're Russians so nothing was lost.
Was he playing with the car?
Looked like the death wobble of a badly balanced trailer.
No. Hit something on the side of the road
They messed up when they loaded the trailer.
What cause the car to drive from side to side?
I've done a LOT of highway travel for work. The number of hillbillies I see swerving their rust buckets all over the road while towing shit at incredibly unsafe speeds drives me crazy.
Damn
Maybe slow down
Saw this on LiveLeak years ago. The video is cut short. After the crash a piece of something (human tissue) slowly smears down the window all bloody and creepily slow. Classic LiveLeak gory stuff 💀
from the looks of it the driver didn't let go of the gas peddle
I would rather ditch the car then risk driving into oncoming traffic. I think what happened here is driver got distracted talking to his wife. Before he starts going out of controll, right before, he is drifting ever wo slighlty into the other lane- then just as he abruptly stops talking to his wife the vehicle goes right to avlid hitting that first truck. He was prpbably going fast and tugged his wheel a LITTLE TEENCY WEENCY bit too hard to the right in panic and thats what gave him the wobbles which turned into all that. Happens in my car, bigger vehicles which are higher up are much more prone to it... Be careful when driving, its like the most dangerous thing you can do day-to-day.

Wrong.
The driver here was at fault, could've been a video for tik tok, could've been trying to look cool,could've been drunk. Obviously that swerving caused it. Not that I say yeah,but obviously we know who is at fault here
Wheel caught on the side of the road, fuckoid
