There’s a link at the top of the thread to some news reports. They were talking to a girl who was in front of the tanker and watched the wreck in her rear view mirror. Said she just passed the truck and the truck veered into the center divide right behind her.

No telling what happened. Mechanical wise a blow out on the steering axle would do it. When that happens the driver has little control except to get the rig stopped as soon as possible without hitting the tractor brakes. Pull the trailer brake lever down, accelerate slightly to try and prevent jack knifing, and pray.
