Blown tire causes mobile home semi rollover in Arizona

On June 11, 2025, a semi hauling a mobile home rolled over in Oracle Junction, Arizona, after a tire on the trailer blew out.

The details: Troopers said the wide load was turning onto AZ-77 from AZ-79 when the tire failure sent the trailer over.

No injuries were reported in the accident.
Pinal County deputies and the Arizona DOT came out to help at the scene.
A wrecker was called to remove the mobile home from the highway.

The Arizona Department of Public Safety pointed out that high temperatures can cause extra stress on tires, especially for big rigs and oversized loads.

The incident was cleared with no reports of traffic delays or continued issues on the highway.
