2024 LTI#17 Driver suffered ankle fractured while escaping falling ramp during the unloading process
On 25 September 2024 at 09:30, while preparing to unload the bulldozer from a low-bed trailer, the Driver began to open the trailer ramps. During this process one of the ramps remained stuck. As he went to inspect the stuck ramp, it suddenly began to descend. While the Driver was trying to escape a direct impact from the ramp, he fell and twisted his left foot, resulting in a fracture. He was initially taken to Yibal PDO clinic before being transferred to Badr Al Samaa hospital, where x-ray revealed a fracture on his left foot.
Do you carry out trailer pre-inspection? Do you ensure HGV Drivers are aware of line of fire risks associate with their vehicles? Do you report all faults on vehicles at the end of your journey? ALWAYS identify the line of fire risks and avoid them!
Driver had deactivated the safety lock on both ramps. One of the ramps started to descend before the Driver activated the drop lever.
