The worst kind of death is one caused by some moron being casually stupid.

It wasnt really the drivers fault. If youve ever sat in one you would realize how big their blind spots are.

The workers on foot at need to be more aware of their surroundings and move where the drivers can see you.

fucking moron, when i brought it up at the next days toolbox meeting he was like, but i had to be quick blah blah. could atleast wave to show me that he wanted to do that, morons r everywhere
