Investigation Summary
Employee #1 and a coworker/driver had just extracted a Ford bucket truck that had been stuck in a small ditch off a right-of-way. The coworker was waiting for Employee #1 to get in the truck so they could go on to the next location but, for some reason, Employee #1 was leaning under the back tire of the bucket truck where the coworker could not see him. The coworker noticed traffic approaching from the rear and decided to move to the shoulder of the road. He started the truck and ran over Employee #1, who suffered severe head injuries and was killed.
