Wow! It looked like it almost made that corner too - really leaning hard left.

“The emergency brake possibly gave” is a generous interpretation of what was probably “the emergency brake never was engaged.”

a school mate died that way (long time ago). Only difference: Garbage truck rolled backwards (whatever brakes lost grip).

I miss seeing the driver chasing the vehicle on foot, trying to stop the runaway truck with his hands.
