[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 5183768, member: 77939"] A cell-phone may have been a factor. Shameful you are using a horrific death to smear me. Driver error? Well let's explore for a moment. Here, a procedure is to pull keys and hold out window. Ok. Driver stated he saw guard walk off. This is common. He "may" have interpreted that as all clear. The "system" is flawed in that every guard and driver scenario is a bit different. I NEVER have a guard take keys or come back to the cab. NEVER for at least 2 years. So, error? Debatable for sure. When we had pull key hand guards keys....at least the truck could not be started and driven away. This procedure was abandoned during Covid still today. An error was made. Safety protocols ignored. Faulty equipment etc. Again, hand signals and interpretation of those signals is at the root of this tragedy. The entire operation has become so lax, that it is literally much more dangerous than in my 40 years. Much more. [/QUOTE]
