Narrative

The Haul Truck Operator driving a 777D unit was traveling with a load to the Quarry Crusher, when the operator veered from roadway, & traveled through an approximate 5'7"" berm. The truck rolled down an approximate 15-20 embankment & landed upright at the next roadway area. The operator allegedly nodded off & lost control of the haul truck.
