Abstract: At approximately 8:00 p.m. on May 24, 1995, Employee #1 was driving a 1991 Ford E350 van/crew bus on USFS road #37. Employees #2 through #6 were passengers on their way home. A hail/thunderstorm had passed through the area just before quitting time. As the van entered a downhill grade and winding area, several passengers told the driver to slow down. As he entered a sweeping right turn, he tried to slow the van and it began to fishtail. Employee #1 lost control and the van plunged more than 400 ft down a steep, rocky embankment. Employees #1, #2, #5, and #6 were ejected while the van was rolling over. The employees were transported to Douglas Community Hospital by Airlife helicopter, Bend, or Medic-4 ambulance, Roseburg. Employees #1 and #3 suffered multiple bruises; Employees #2 and #5 were hospitalized with pelvic and back fractures; and Employees #4 and #6 suffered multiple fractures.
