“My Worst Driving Fear”: Video Goes Viral, The Moment A Trailer Had Brake Failure, Leading to Fatal Accident

This video that appeared online shows the moment a moving trailer carrying a container suddenly experienced brake failure, which immediately led to a fatal accident that left many injured.

From the video, the trailer was moving well until it suddenly experienced a brake failure and immediately ran to hit the vehicles in front. 

The brake failure badly hit a bus in front, which led the bus to break down, and passengers within sustaining injury.

The video was posted on the Instagram page @carcontinent which said: “trucks and containers should move at night, that way we will ensure safety of road users. That’s one way to handle it. I just hope no life was lost in this scene.”

@pleasant_luxury commented: “Brake failure 😢😢😢. My worst driving fear! Why i no dey like drive front of trailer/tanker.”

@bob_automart commented: “This is my biggest driving fear. I don’t joke with that small rear mirror in the car.”

@wesley.senpai commented: “I’ve been saying this thing for the past 4 years let truck move at night , there should be truck ports, so when morning reach and they can’t finish their journey they should park there and pay, coz they are the ones causing traffic and spoiling the roads…the government is just daft”

@flashlogisticsandprocurement commented: “It is more dangerous for them to move at night. Two weeks ago, I truck rammed into us from behind. I was doing below 40 when the truck guy swerved into my lane on top speed because of brake failure. My car came out with a very minor dent because I was able to swerve out of his way but he bashed my bumper. I thank God for saving my life. Just imagine it was late”

@jayprogroup commented: “I don’t think anyone got seriously hurt 🤞🏾 🙏🏾 Looks a bit low impact from this part, Mehn I witnessed one truck roll back it wasn’t funny at all 😭“
