She was just rescued. Experts say "air" brakes saved her.

Wondering how her air brakes saved her when none of her tires are in contact with the road surface.

It's one hell of a demonstration to the strength of the kingpin and 5th wheel plate.

Think about it. You still have time to delete your question.

Well I must be as dumb as Jim - please explain.

Certainly the air hoses and gladhands weren't robust enough to keep the tractor attached to the trailer.

The 5th wheel and kingpin jaws are doing that. All I can think of is as the tractor lost contact with the road - the trailer's brakes provided stopping/holding power long enough till help arrived and the truck tilted over.

Guess on my part, but it looks like the back end of the trailer is locked up with the bridge structure and that's what kept her from a swimming adventure.

Nah, it isn't on my short list... I just figured the clueless here would enjoy it as they were obviously too dense to get the joke.

Maybe it got hung up on the semi-trailer's landing gear??
