I've seen it happen over and over. When people are driving and focused on something beside the road like a stationary car or flashing lights, they unconsciously drift toward it. It's just an accident, and when the pissed off cops are done writing a bucket of tickets for anything they can think of, the courts take over with a more rational look at what happened and proof of the charges. It just takes time and money. This law makes it easy to prove.

Given the ease with which the trailer topples in the high wind, it's probably safe to assume that it isn't loaded. However, once the vehicle is on its side it takes a frighteningly long time to come to rest. I don't think that the wind had a part to play in that but the kinetic energy involved must have been substantial.
