Yup. I took these photos of a similar occurrence that happened near an exit ramp on I-90, close to Livingston, Mt. in 2017. Fortunately, the truck was slowing to take the exit when the bearing let go, and the dually just ended up coming to rest in the median, instead of continuing into the oncoming traffic lane. Trailer was carrying a full load of bee hives that the attending rural fire truck driver had to spray with water to keep bees cool. Wonder what the frequency of this type of failure might be.
