Hey Nick.
Looks like a 2,5m wide trailer.
When u have a 210 or bigger machine u normaly have the chaincenter just on the edge of the trailer.
And when the timber dekking stops some cm in on the trailer, the chain twists on the exc. Then u already have growser pads angled down and out to the side.
This is a bad combination, you have to bee very very carefully when u move the exc. To say it politicaly.
And i see he has used the extension timber only on front, where he had the exc under transport.
When u come to the tipping point at the back, you very quickly get in trouble.
Growsers leaned out and down, nearly zero contact area, well, it looks like thats the point he got problems.
I learn my guy,s to put timber on the whole way, also down to the ramps.
And our timber extension is so thick, that the hight matches the timber on the dekking.(On our 3 axled machine trailers,Kelberg)
On our big trailers we use the trackguiders.

These trackguiders may be a good security improvement for you trucker guy's.
