[QUOTE="qdg2, post: 5351129, member: 100309"] South Carolina. 62 yo killed by a shifter. No vest......poorly lighted. I encourage ANYONE to just go out in the yard or inside the hub and just watch for 10 minutes. I watch shifters at the rev limiter/gov fly around the yard. Carwash, feeders, pkg, mgt, and civilians running every stopping and busting every speed limit. I watch drivers walk about the yard with no vest. They say "Just going to my tractor....."(which happens to be the full length of the yard away...) Every UPS yard is at least poorly lit. I watch yard walkers stand behind trailers with no orange cone at the front...lot's of these folks set the cone BEHIND the trailer.....these folks will go in pairs and stand TOGETHER BEHIND THE TRAILER with no cone. How about barn door trailers wide open, doors flapping in the breeze tearing around the yard full pop. Yet, we have UNION BROTHERS who won't say a word to anyone...they say MYODB..... I bet this guy was someone's Grandpa. Godspeed Brother [/QUOTE]
