Wow, sad day indeed. At least the commentator said the driver walked away. Truck looks finished though.

Looks like Gervais Towing out of Ottawa Ont. and if I'm not mistaken that's their brand new rotator that was the cover truck and 1st place winner in this year's Tow Canada beauty contest.

Hope everyone was ok and they have sufficient insurance. D

Nothing worse than towing your own equipment

It was said it was a new truck and had a steer tire failure.

It's sad but if you go to 3:38 in the video you see both front tires are full of air.

I wasn't thinking it was going to be damaged that bad--later in the video you see the broken power pole--sad  day for the tow company, hope the driver was OK
