Just like a car in hill country. Power up a slope and fry the brakes
coming down.
 
We have runaway truck lanes here, a side road filled with gravel. A
big loaded semi doesn't have much engine braking and then smokes the
brakes.

We have one a few miles away.  It is at the bottom of a series of zigzag
bends and on the *inside* of the last bend.  Any runaway lorry would
have to negotiate the bends in order to to reach it and then turn
through two sharp 90-degree bends to enter it.

It seems to be mostly used by picnickers who have reasoned that the
chance of any runaway reaching them is minimal.
