Longitudinal tip over can occur by driving
with the load down slope on a steep
grade.
Lateral and longitudinal tip over can occur if
the truck is driven over objects on the floor
or ground, off the edge of improved
surfaces, or into potholes in the road
surface, or by running into overhead
objects or collisions.
An off dock type of tip over can occur if the
truck is steered too close to the dock edge,
driven off the edge of the dock or ramp, or if
the highway truck or trailer rolls away from
the dock or is driven away during loading.
