Narrative

An employee was turning the corner while riding a PIV electric pallet lift. The brakes failed, so the employee quickly fell from the PIV. When he fell, his left foot was run over by a different PIV lift going in the opposite direction. The employee's foot was smashed; he was hospitalized and had surgery.
