Why were the forks tilted All The Way forward? Why were the forks tilted forward at all?

You hit the problem at the start, and not wait til an incident occurs and then ask why certain safety devices are not made or available.

If the forks were tilted somewhat back, then this incident would have not occurred and you wouldn't be asking this question.

Proper, effective, and caring forklift safety training is the way to get it done!

IS THAT BETTER, ED?

The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
