Abstract: At 7:15 a.m. on September 23, 2019, an employee, a heavy equipment operator, was loading a John Deere dozer onto a Trail King lowboy trailer to be pulled by a Kenworth semi-tractor sitting on the eastbound shoulder and part (approximately two feet) of the eastbound lane of the highway. The employee, wearing a construction yellow shirt, was working between the semi-truck and trailer, with safety strobe light and parking lights on, while positioning the dozer on the trailer to remove the dozer from the worksite. A truck (GMC Denali) came up behind the trailer in the eastbound lane and struck the rear, left corner of the trailer. The truck's rear end spun around as the vehicle operator lost control of the vehicle and struck the employee, who was killed by unspecified injuries.
