While doing so, the truck that Employee #1 had been operating rolled forward, pinning him between his truck and the truck ahead of it in the wash area. The employee failed to set the parking brake and did not place chocks in front of the wheels upon exiting the truck, which was parked on an incline. As a result, the truck rolled forward, leading to serious injuries, including broken bones in both legs. The employee was hospitalized for treatment.
