Abstract: Employee #1 was driving a front end loader within the blocked-off area of the center median and inside lane of a four-lane highway. The traffic in the remaining three lanes was moving at full speed. The front end loader and a dump truck crossed almost diagonally from the center median to the side of the freeway without a flagman or any other traffic-slowing effort. The front end loader was struck broadside by a half-ton truck. Employee #1 was thrown off and run over by the loader. He was killed. The loader was equipped with ROPS and a seat belt, but Employee #1 did not have the belt buckled.
