Investigation Summary
On October 9, 1991, Employee #1 of R.C. Collet, Inc., was working on a construction project at Sacramento Metro Airport. There was some confusion about what was going to be done next. A paving machine backed down a new taxiway, and a dump truck started to drive off to pick up a trailer. A laborer stopped the truck driver and signaled him to back up to the paver. Employee #1 was instructed to signal the paver to return to its previous area. While signaling to the paver, Employee #1 walked behind the backing truck and was struck. He rolled under the truck's rear axle. Employee #1 sustained multiple injuries to his head and upper body. He was flown by Life Flight to UC Medical Center in Sacramento, where he was pronounced dead.
