Seski was driving a 1950s Brockway diesel truck tractor with a 35 ft (11 m) semi-trailer and was headed down Rt. 307 when he suddenly lost control. The "two-mile" descent extends from Lake Scranton down to the bottom of Moosic Street (41.4000000°N 75.6550000°WCoordinates: 41.4000000°N 75.6550000°W), a 500 ft (150 m) drop in elevation in little more than a mile. The truck eventually crashed at the southwest corner of Moosic St and S. Irving Ave.
