"The vehicle overcorrected and began to spin clockwise, before entering a passenger-side leading slide with the attached trailer sliding north of the vehicle," the summary reads.

The pickup then reportedly entered the median and tripped, causing a passenger-side roll.

The pickup came to rest on its roof in the southbound lanes and the trailer, which detached during the roll, continued north of the pickup before coming to rest upside down, the summary says.
