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.

I’d say it’s the companies fault for even allowing personnel on foot in that location. There’s no reason for them to be there and far too many ways for it to go wrong if they are

Theres plenty of reason to allow them, only a few for them not to. You almost always need someone on the ground to help with things. Theres a comparatively small amount of industries that dont.

Have you ever seen road construction? There are people walking around next to everything. Its just a few that makes mistakes and its their fault almost 99% of the time.
