Yotaguy,

I would like to know exactly where you found that statistic? I checked out Toyota's website and didn't find any statement to that effect, so I just wanted to verify the accuracy. Below is an excerpt from their website, which talks of decreased tipover fatalities, but every lift truck manufacturer has done that. Please point me to the source.

"There are more than 100,000 SAS-equipped lift trucks in the field with over 450 million hours of operation. With an increased population of SAS-equipped trucks in the field and in conjunction with mandatory operator training, overturn fatalities across all brands have decreased by 13.6 percent since 1999." ~toyotaforkliftdotcom

Fact of the week
The word "okay" (or its abbreviation "OK") originated as a humorous misspelling. In the 1830s, a fad in Boston involved using abbreviations of intentionally misspelled phrases. "OK" stood for "oll korrect," a playful mispronunciation of "all correct".
