I would agree with the general opnion of driver error, or better still driver knows better than the industry. After inspection of three similar incidents at the same premises the same conclusion was given. These are mechanical handling devices not boy's toys, has anyone noticed the amount of operators still without licence or formal training. Good companies operate endorsement and penalties for driver error. Safety is not an option!

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".
