Determining What Happened
A stake body truck is one that typically has a flatbed with removable vertical stakes or racks. These are often used for installing bulky items or carrying loose materials such as building supplies. It is not clear if this truck had any of those elements on board. However, they can be hard to balance, and any type of operation of them at a speed that is too fast can cause them to flip over. These are larger trucks, and the risk of serious damage is high.
