Low speed?
Given the hydraulics didn't break away, just the hinge at the back - looks like he was either unloading at the time, or driving with the back raised. Back hits bridge, absorbs most of energy, hinge breaks, cab arcs up into bridge at lower speed but with substantial energy still to dissipate?

What's more amazing is that it's a red truck, everyone I saw in China was the same shade of blue.
Guy drove up the M80 with the tipper up, got it wedged under a gantry, the gantry cross beam was removed, but the pillars are still there like stumps.
