Narrative

An employee was inside a truck bucket, positioning it to perform maintenance on an overhead sign. A semi-truck in an active lane near the work zone struck the bucket the employee was in, causing the bucket to break and the employee to be ejected. His fall protection harness caught him before he hit the ground. He sustained a fractured left tibia.
