Narrative

A leased dump truck was dumping aggregate on the floor of our pit and the truck tipped over on the drivers side as the dump box was lifting. The driver sustained 3 fractured vertebrae and a bulging disc due to the impact of the tip. They were not wearing a seatbelt at the time. The driver was taken by ambulance but later released.
