September 19, 2019 AZ · Metal/Non-Metal haul/off road/coal/ore/pit/quarry/rock/rubber tire truck driver, transportation truck driver POWERED HAULAGE
Drake Materials · Struck against a moving object

While operating a 70-ton rigid frame haul truck, EE backed up to the berm on the South end of the pad. It appears the stockpile under the back wheels fell away from under the truck, causing the truck to slide off the stockpile and turned over backwards. It appears that EE impacted the roof of the cab, causing serious injury.
