Looks like a Plane tree.  Unlikely it was rotten enough to break off the hinge so I would image they cut too far through the hinge and it snapped off sideways..it was clearly leaning back quite heavy, too much to be pulled over by hand(assuming it was being pulled by hand)...also looking at the rope constantly slackening off I would guess it was being tugged on.  Another big no no when pulling a tree over, thats asking for it to snap off the hinge each time it sits back.  A steady continuous pull must be had at all time.

 

Purely conjecture on my part as not everything can be seen.

what hinge???

That is unbelievable, If I was riding that bike there would be some serious violence.

Why not fell it in the direction of the lean so that it falls nearer to the truck, make it easier to ring up and load?

We can all make an error but that is just dumb on a whole new level, a couple of guys in hi-viz out on the street stopping traffic for a minute, job done, unbelievable.
