Narrative

An employee was driving a front-load/bucket tractor on an unpaved roadway. While surveying conditions, the employee stopped the tractor and positioned the front load bucket to approximately 18 inches above the ground to take pictures/video of a water-filled ravine that crossed the main roadway. The employee was then driving forward when the front wheels rolled down a slight sloped wash. The bucket embedded in the dirt, causing the tractor to stop. The employee's abdomen was injured from the abrupt stop and the pressure from the seatbelt he was wearing.
