Investigation Summary
At approximately 8:00 a.m. on or about February 5, 2009, Employee #1 was driving a semi-truck and trailer loaded with paper rolls heading east on Hwy 18, Lincoln City, Oregon. When he approached Mile Post 1.5, he started into a right hand curve. He lost control and traveled across the westbound lane. The truck rolled onto its driver's side and slid down an approximately 20-foot embankment. The trailer came to rest off the highway after damaging approximately 125 feet of guard rail. The driver was extricated from the vehicle and flown to a trauma hospital. His injuries were not specified in the abstract.
