Narrative

A haulage operator rode in a van that had no air conditioning for approximately 45 minutes while waiting for a truck to operate. Then got onto a haul truck for the shift that also had no air conditioning. The driver began to feel sick and experienced heat exhaustion by the time they had gotten to the heavy duty truck shop for A/C repairs.
