Investigation Summary
On March 15, 2003, an employee, of Roll-Off Express, Inc., was operating a Trailer Jockey to move full and empty trailers in the yard. He turned a full 48-ft trailer over on its side during a sharp left hand turn, approximately 100 ft from his starting point. As the trailer tilted, the trailer jockeys rear axle acted as a fulcrum and the front end went up into the air almost to a 90 angle. The part of the king pin snapped off, allowing the trailer jockey to fall back to the ground. The employee was thrown around inside of the cab receiving multiple injuries such as broken ribs, wrist, and a severe laceration to the right side of his head requiring approximately 42 stitches. He was hospitalized for over a week.
