Investigation Summary
On May 12, 2009, Employee #1, a lead service technician, was at his workplace. His job involved preparing vehicles used to unload vessels and completing paperwork when the drivers came to get the vehicles. A driver had gotten a TICO Tractor (also known as a yard dog or yard jockey), but because one of the windows was not sliding easily, he drove the tractor into a service bay to apply some lubricant to the window. When the driver was finished, he began reversing the tractor from the service bay. The driver initially observed Employee #1 behind him, but thought that Employee #1 was not in his expected route. Employee #1 apparently moved from the site where the driver had initially seen him. As the driver was reversing the tractor at an angle to avoid other parked tractors, he ran over Employee #1. A witness yelled for the driver to stop, but he drove forward and again ran over Employee #1. Employee #1 was killed as a result of blunt force injuries to his torso that resulted in significant fractures and blood loss. The TICO Tractor was not equipped with a reverse or back-up alarm, but the view to the rear was not obstructed. Employee #1 was wearing a high visibility traffic vest, but there were no signs indicating pedestrian traffic in the area.
