So many things wrong here. The slope is too great. The barge is not secured to the shore. The driver only used his trailer brakes to stop, but should have used the brakes on his tractor and trailer together. This means that the weight of tractor and trailer was pushing the barge away from the bank. The captain of the barge should have been ready to provide a counter-force to avoid being pushed off the bank.
