Struck against stationary object

The truck operator was traveling from the 870 level of the quarry to the waste dump with a load of waste material. The truck left the road, overtraveled a berm and continued down the highwall, rolling over before coming to rest int he quarry. It is believed that the truck operator suffered a medical event and as a result was unable to control the truck as it left the road.
