The Belden Brick Company · Struck against a moving object

Driver was backed up to the dump location and started to raise the trailer. As the bed was being raised, the driver noticed the bed starting to sway. EE hit the down lever. As the bed was coming down, it started to lean to the right and then continued to the ground on its passenger side. Tractor and trailer were damaged. Load not evenly distributed was leading factor.
