Narrative

Scope of the job was to utilize scrapers to transport overburden soil to fill in washouts along a slope within the mine with assistance from a dozer. In this process a scraper operator was braking then started to lose traction and began to slide sideways until the left front tire of the scraper dropped into a washout, thus jackknifing the scraper, causing the cab to overturn.
