November 25, 2008 WV · Coal haul/off road/coal/ore/pit/quarry/rock/rubber tire truck driver, transportation truck driver POWERED HAULAGE
Southern West Virginia Resources LLC · Struck against a moving object

This report is for compliance, contractor feels the accident was not fault of driver or company. The truck hauled in a load of dirty coal, bed staged out and load did not dump, passenger side broke loose, driver's side stuck. Unbalanced truck flipped over, truck was level, but when load stuck, driver's side wheels sank, adding to turnover. Coal came from another mine site.
