Updated | By Lethu Ndimande
Can you believe that a simple mistake like this had such a disastrous effect?
A truck wreaked havoc on a highway recently as a result of travelling with its trailer up.
According to metro.co.uk, the truck was on a highway near Austin, Texas. The driver had clearly forgotten to move the trailer back to its proper position after emptying its contents.
Other motorists tried to warn the truck driver, but were too late as the truck smashed into a traffic sign, bringing down a whole construction site as it drove past. No other vehicles were caught up in the accident.
Carlos Escobedo, who uploaded the video to Facebook, told metro.co.uk that he and his dad tried to signal to the truck driver, but were too late.
