Investigation Summary
On January 28, 2008, Employee #1, the owner of a home heating oil delivery service, was training a new employee. The employee was driving a fuel truck, and Employee #1 was in the passenger seat as they arrived at a single-family home to deliver heating oil. They backed the truck into the home's driveway, which had a 12-degree slope. The vehicle's parking brake was inoperable, so Employee #1 moved to the driver's side and held the foot brake with his hand while the new employee pumped oil. When Employee #1 slipped and fell, the truck rolled over him and killed him.
