He was operating the vehicle in reverse, with the drum wheel to the rear, when the rubber tires started to pull. Employee #1 could not maintain control and he was trying to jump clear when the compactor went over an embankment and rolled over. The vehicle landed on top of him, crushing his mid-section. Employee #1 sustained a fractured left femur, a damaged spleen, and a crushed pelvis.
