Two UPSers Lose Their Lives At Ontario Air Hub

[OntCombo63]

No humans are visible under the tractor. Do you actually see crushed workers in this photo?

They placed a rain jacket on the part of the person's body that was sticking out.

None of you guys could ever be judges. There is only one driver of the tug. The other guy has to ride with him. Unless you can prove the driver didn't act alone in his foolishness, the passenger is innocent. In fact, I'll take it further... unless there is video or witnesses proving that the driver caused the tip-over through horseplay, neither is he guilty of horseplay by default. I'll take it even further than that... these tugs are KNOWN to buck madly when the gas pedal is pressed. Unless you can prove that the tug didn't pop a wheely and flip backwards onto the workers, your opinions are just opinions.

I agree with you these tugs do buck pretty badly especially rental equipment. 100% they have cameras. The OSHA report will probably detail it when it's released.

So can anyone who has ever driven one of these tugs tell me if they are really capable of doing a wheelie or is that just hearsay?

He's wondering if he can use legal services to pay for his defense lawyers.

Only if the defense lawyers were the consignees.

I’ve got no problem stating the truth. The deaths of these two dumbs is exactly the reward to risk they we’re taking, ESPECIALLY ON THE TARMAC ADJACENT TO AIRCRAFT. The ONLY people I truly feel sorry for and send my honest condolences to, are the families of these two idiots who had to be informed that their loved ones killed themselves friend’n around at their part time jobs.

 

[Kicked Your Dog]

This story is not a secret. It’s been ran in a lot of local papers including the LA Times. Thank God these dummies didn’t kill any one else or destroy any aircraft they were mere feet from.

They're probably already blowing smoke.

When the ringleader was non union, keeping the scam going required the help of multiple supervisors, and no union officials were involved using it to talk about teamster corruption is a huge reach.

Sounds like some sort of medical emergency to me.

This happens every couple of years.

And, when there is a group pf people involved.... there are always supes.

Do they put the supes on a 'packet' and fire the hourly?
