that seems like one of those insurance things that the big companies run away from. like you were a evil, no good, property destroying, lack of responsibly. but 2 minutes before the accident, you were tops on the dispatchers list for the most reliable.

now i am not putting the rollover as nothing serious, as a matter of fact besides loss of freight, property and the expense of righting it back up( very expensive... every vehicle and personnel involve to the scene gets paid....mostly for watching the pro's do their job)

Truth be told, loss of life possibilities is the big worry. you would think that you are now better qualified to avoid and / or handle the seconds before the rollover with much more understanding of what not to do. the best knowledge comes from experience. hands on experience is what a real training should be.

so in reality the accident, ( and that's what it was , unless you did it on purpose, ) should fall back to the trucking industry for not fully training you on a skid pad with poor traction and poorly balanced loads.

good luck on your search.
