Default Turns where trucks always roll over

I can't believe how many times trucks turn over at:
16w NJ tpk
"garbage truck turn" I 95 to 80 west ramp
I 684 to 84 east
at least once a week

The driver will now be known as Singe.
The roadway did not appear to have sustained serious damage...well that's a relief.

Default I'd like to add a bad spot...

I'd like to add a bad spot where trucks always roll over, north bound I-55 ramp onto the poplar street bridge seems like at least once a week a truck rolls there

Fuel tanker flips and burns, closing Turnpike ramp - Newark, New Jersey Local News | Newark Live - NJ.com
I'm a little surprised about that corner at 16w...

It's really not that bad of a corner!

Yet, two (2) Tankers Flipped in the same spot in the last six (6) months...

Now, I684 to I84 East is another story!

I'm surprised that more 4-wheelers aren't getting taken out by big trucks traveling East... when they loose control of their vehicles getting onto 84...

I've seen more cars come off that ramp spinning complete 360's across 84!

Unbelievable!

Scary!

racerchase is on a distinguished road

The I-85N to I77N interchange in Charlotte NC claims at least one truck a month. Even though it has a double flashing yellow light,a flashing 25 MPH sign and a radar gun with your speed posted and flashing red if you are exceeding 25 mph, drivers still flip over due to speed.
