| Description of the problem | Was driving north on i-95 on 31 oct 2009 with a 12' trailer full of pottery in tow speed between 75 and 80. Just completed transition from bridge back to highway when truck began to shake violently. Initial reaction was a blowout but quickly realized that this was the same problem my daughter incurred a week earlier. Slowed truck down and worked way across highway to shoulder of road to check out the situation. After verifying no tires were flat and steering was all in tact resumed trip (very cautiously) to nc. |
