Investigation Summary
At 11:45 a.m. on September 21, 2017, an employee was transporting a forklift by loading it onto a gooseneck trailer attached to a light industrial truck. When the forklift was loaded on the trailer, the weight of the load began to push the entire rig, trailer and truck, forward, causing it to slide on the gravel surface. The driver turned the wheels of the truck to try and stop the movement, which caused the trailer to jack-knife. As the trailer came around to the drivers side, the driver attempted to escape the impact by jumping out of the truck through the driver's side, and was caught between the moving trailer with the load and the side of the truck. The employee was crushed against the truck and killed.
