Not on a divided road, that was just plain idiocy. He made no attempt to widen the arc by using all of the available width. To screw a tri-axle trailer around that tightly shows a total, lack of mechanical sympathy, it's hell on tyres, bearings and suspension, dragging wheels sideways like that.

With trailer getting larger than some un/loading points were ever designed for, there are times that tight turns cannot be avoided, but I always look for more mechanically considerate options.

Good job we don't have light movable blocks like that in WA or our "drivers" would be doing the same thing every day.
