A manure tanker with steerable axles on it has a "Tail wagging the dog" type of effect when you turn with a articulated tractor.

If you turn right the drawbar is telling the tank to turn left, can and will eventually end up in a ditch.

I've seen it happen to experienced operators twice, thankfully the tank was empty and the ditch was shallow both times.
