Ok, heres what happened.
I was leaving work after a heavy rain storm, on top of that the highway had just been resurfaced (very slick).
The entrance ramp was at the beginning of an overpass so I wasn't taking off to quickly. Coming down the other side it started to slide & spin, it was all down hill from there. (pun intended) With the oil & water on the road it was worse than ice.
No control until I got on the grass in the median between the highway & another entrance ramp.
I got it turned back almost forward, still sliding to the right, just in time to come up the embankment for the on ramp (about 6ft high, 45 deg. or more incline).
Now I'm airborne, (insert wing jokes here. By the way it survived) I landed on the other side of the ramp, right front tire first. The rim dug into the pavement, broke off at the hub, and caused the truck to rollover.
It came down on the top corner of the cab on the passenger side and continued over right side up, the roll bar saved my @$$. The way it landed the roof would have flattened out, if I didn't have it.
I crawled out the passenger window to an audience of co-workers (wide eye-jaws on the ground-white as sheets) one of them said "man I can't believe your walking".
So I took a bow and we called 911.
The good parts are...
1. There were no other vehicles or people around that I could have hit. (The co-workers were far enough behindthat they only saw the landing)
2. I walked away.
3. The officer only sighted me for "UNSAFE SPEED", (based on the field I plowed) not the accident.
4. My attorney said he will be able to get the ticket dismissed (So no points)
I'm going to meet with the Ins. agent & get some pics, will post them latter tonight.
