Narrative

The haul truck operator either fell asleep or was not paying attention and drove over the 3 foot safety berm and landed on the next level of the pit. The truck landed on the front left side of the haul truck. The operator exited the truck by himself and a coworker stopped and notified the supervisor. The weather was sunny, 90F degrees, no fog and no mud on the haul road.
