Investigation Summary
At 3:15 p.m. on August 5, 2019, an employee was standing in between storage racks in an aisleway to show a coworker, a PIT operator, where a pallet was located. The employee was blindsided by another coworker operating a PIT in reverse with no load, too fast, and not looking. The back of a Toyota electric PIT ran up and over the employee's lower body. The aisle was ten feet wide, and the aisle from which the PIT traversed was ten and a half feet wide. The employee's leg was amputated, and he was hospitalized.
