Investigation Summary
Employee #1 left the restroom building and was passing the ramp to the unloading dock. The driver of a yard truck pulled straight across from the ramp with a trailer loaded with oranges. He blew his horn, checked his driver's side mirror, and started to back up, continuing to check his driver's side mirror and to blow his horn. At the point where the ramp met the drive, Employee #1 was walking with her head down and a jacket hood up. It was a rainy night and she did not see the trailer backing toward her. The driver did not check his passenger-side mirror, and so failed to see her. Employee #1 was struck by the rear of the trailer, and was killed.
