Investigation Summary
At 12:15 p.m. on May 22, 2017, an employee was hitching up a tandem trailer rig. The employee backed the truck and first trailer into a second trailer and then exited the cab to hitch the second trailer. The parking brake in the truck was not engaged and the working surface had a slight upward incline. As the trailer was hooked up and the employee hooked up the air brakes, both trailers rolled backwards approximately 8 feet. The first and second trailers jack knifed into one another and the employee was crushed and killed.
