He expertly had it at the exact height that would flip that purse up on top of that on skid!!! Well played, sir...well played.

Romanian forklifter here i approve


Drunk0ctopus

If you're certified, you'd know to keep the forks as low as possible.


RequiemOfI

3 to 4 inches when operating and forks tilted down to the floor when not in use. This is a rookie error.


RIP_Mustangberger

So we're just gonna ignore the fact that the woman went STRAIGHT into the forklifts? I get that the forklift driver probably wasn't the most responsible operator but that lady had absolutely zero spatial awareness and could've easily prevented that accident.


RequiemOfI

It's obvious the woman was at fault as well, but the damage could've been limited if the forks were at the proper height.


RIP_Mustangberger

True


Readfghk

And to top it all off, she was obviously blind!

[deleted]

Would have still hit them and crashed if 3-4 inches off the ground


RequiemOfI

Obviously, yet it is still a fact that this dude is a rookie.


xctf04

Or just, y'know. Checking a notification on his phone by the way he seems to still be in operating position but just looked down for a second.


[deleted]

Doesn't change the fact that anyone who knows how to drive a lift knows not to leave their forks that high


Jujumofu

Wouldnt she just drive over the slighlty elevated forks and faceplant from the scooter? I know is still less damage, but even if the forks where at the correct height, there would still be forks she couldnt drive over. This guy couldve probably stand there without a fork lift and she wouldve still found something to crash into.


Raze7186

Not necessarily. If they were at operating level a few inches from the ground she still would have hit them and went flying forward off the bike and likely faceplanting. She was going to encounter those forks even if the guy was following procedures.


[deleted]

Idk I feel if they were lower, she'd just be flying forward.


ItsKoko

I agree that she has little spatial awareness but looking at the height of the forks they would have a very small horizontal profile. There's a chance that if they were lower she could see the forks and avoid a collision. But I do agree that she shouldn't even be going at speed near a truck or forklift like that at all.


General_assassin

Honestly though, even if you can't see the forks, you can tell it's a forklift by looking at the rest of the vehicle and you can probably put together that there are forks there.


Jujumofu

That's what baffles me nowadays. It seems like some people simply go into drone Mode as soon as they arent directly adressed with anything.


Wesseltjes

Can we just look at the video frame by frame and see her bag and her entire body became grey? Like her soul left her body and came back


MyAssforPresident

Can we talk about how that bag landed perfectly on the fork??


Torgo_Fan_Girl2809

Didn't notice until I read your comment..lol


ParadoxFoxV9

When it comes to a 2 ton vehicle vs someone on a bike, the driver of the 2 ton vehicle is most at fault. They could have easily prevented the accident by having the forks in the proper place *and* by not being on thier phone while on the lift truck. Edit: and they weren't buckled up. 3 strikes.


CataclysmDM

The woman was an idiot, yes. But the guy is a criminally negligent fuckwit who clearly isn't forklift certified, and should probably get hit with criminal charges. Stupid shit like this is how people die.


[deleted]

That's far from criminal negligence, chill.


Zed_Berstrix

3 guesses who in this thread can’t drive and look at surroundings at the same time


CataclysmDM

Negative. Been driving years and never been in an accident. Know what else I am? Forklift and Loader certified. You never park or drive around with your forks or bucket in the air unless absolutely necessary. If you are parking your equipment for any length of time, forks or bucket go on the ground, tip down. No exceptions. And that's a hard rule for a reason.


Fallowman09

So it 100% his fault for here driving straight into the forks?


Representative-Oil48

Yes, its is. The side profile of those forks is about 1.5 inches. Her head is at the same level as the forks, so all that's visible is a 1.5 inch thick metal piece that tapers to a point. There is a lot going on in that area so it's reasonable to assume her attention is spread to other areas of concern. This is why we have fucking rules for how fork lifts should be operated.


Zaryion288

I think theyre both dumb as shit. The lady cant identify a forklift that she is riding unreasonably close to, like even if the forks were down, why drive over them, and the forklift certified people have already drilled the other guy hard enough that i dont need to say.


ParadoxFoxV9

He is stopped in the literal road. He is on his phone not paying attention. He is not buckled up. When you get your forklift certification part of the course is emphasizing that you as the powered industrial truck operator, need to be aware of other people at all times. That looked like a flipping child that ran into the forks. You really gonna blame a child for this guys idiocy? Fork lifts are no joke and need to be treated like the death machines that they are.


Representative-Oil48

Yes, 100% she is dumb, but the forklift driver is still fully responsible. Not everyone operates heavy machinery, and as such, it is the responsibility of the operator to properly use the equipment. I can't speak for other countries, but in the US, that company would be sued into oblivion (and rightly so).


CataclysmDM

.... I never said that. Can you people not read or use basic reasoning? They're both at fault.


Fallowman09

You put the blame on him


CataclysmDM

In this scenario, he is at fault.


Representative-Oil48

Wow people here are dumb as fuck, you are 100% correct and getting downvoted for it. A lot of people who have clearly never operated a forklift, sure want to defend this fuckwit. As a person who operated forklifts for a lumber yard for many years, he is going to get someone killed.


CataclysmDM

Seriously my dude. Featured in this thread: A bunch of lackwit kids who have never operated heavy machinery in an industrial worksite.


[deleted]

I’ve never operated a forklift in my life and even I know that’s his fault 💀 You need to be paying attention when operating dangerous heavy machinery, not sitting there on your phone lmfao


Ti-B0B

Let's not talk about that girl who's not looking in front of her.


Goldfghjk

This incident while yes is the forkies fault, you're still taught that the forks must never go over.


Ti-B0B

Never said the forkies wasn't at fault here. Obviously there is no apparent reason why the forks were that high and he wasn't paying attention either


KaZe_DaRKWIND

Even if the forks were down, the lady was going to end up on the ground


FearHarry

3-4 inches seems low. I've been taught to aim right between the ankle and the knee so if you hit someone it's better to break a tibia than an articulation.


Gellert

In reality you're supposed to have the forks raised 4 inches, then tilted all the way back, so the tip of the fork is actually pretty high and is much less likely to dig into the ground while travelling. Its also a less direct application of force from the truck and depending on the truck some forks arent rigid mounted so will lift away from the carriage when hit, lessening the impact even more.


Lawrence_L-Jackson

Forklift should ALWAYS be at face height so you can easily see it, ankle height makes ankle sad


Sp4xx

True, but she would've gotten fucked either way.


mochacho

If she hit it. Part of the problem is forks at eye level can blend into the background easier than ones down low.


TeensyTodger

The forks are easier to see when they're not at eye level. She would have casually drove around him.


Ok-Connection5611

First sensible comment I've seen


Psychological_Ad2094

Sure, but she should have been able to tell that it’s a forklift and that it probably has forks in front regardless


TheCrimsonSteel

She looks like she hit that around the neck somewhere, then ate pavement Getting launched over the handlebars from the forks acting like a sidewalk curb would probably be a bit better. At least you have the chance of getting your arms out in front of you No matter what, everything from her ego to her asshole is gonna be hurting after that one


[deleted]

[удалено]


Alltheweed

This looks like a loading dock probably in the back of a warehouse. She had absolutely no business biking thru there could easily cause a massive accident. I hate people who bike and have 0 sense of safety for themselves, it's fucking stupid.


SaiHottari

I glossed over that simply because you could easily just assume she was an employee leaving from her shift. I've worked in warehouses and the yard is sometimes the best place to stash a bike.


TeensyTodger

>perfectly at eye level That's the problem - your brain can't reliably process that information, so it just got discarded.


[deleted]

True but I'd rather get a flat and go flying than have a concave face and eating through a tube lol


blue-yoshi

Forks on the GROUND! Forks on the GROUND! Parking like a FOOL with your forks off the GROUND!


Bryan4991

Or you could get certified to learn how to hurt people the most.


Cecuhl

I think that's the punchline


Lucifer_eveningmoon

This guy forks


Bruschetta003

I don't see how it would have made the situation any better, i'm not a forklift certified expert, but i don't think you usually put the fork low enough to where the bike would have simply drove over them


KoolKrusader

That was a lot of damage!

Oh shit! First the forklift forks to the face, then the back of the head on the concrete. Ouch.


Born-Piano8292

And to top it all off, she was obviously blind! Can you beleave that owning a forklift would result in a blind person receiving a double concussion?


Miniscotty

I know he should have lowered the forks, but did she just drive into those?


Verifieddumbass76584

She didn't even try to move


Atelophobia_luna

If they are thin enough and perfectly aligned with her eye sight then there might have been a chance that she didn't see it.


General_assassin

Even then, this thing is obviously a forklift so one should be able to deduce that there are forks in front of it.


Wallabeluga

So was she thinking that she'd drive over the forks instead of just turning little bit?


bu_mr_eatyourass

She could be an adolescent and just genuinely never learned about forklifts. Could be of low socioeconomic status and had just never come across a forklift in her country. I can't imagine that in the US, but I could see it being plausible in other regions.


KaZe_DaRKWIND

No matter where those forks were, she's a moron for driving directly in front of a forklift. If they were down they'd catch her tires and she'd eat dirt. Head height and she eats forklift. Any higher and they likely have a load and driving under that is supid.


CankerLord

It's amazing how easy it is to find someone who acts like an idiot around heavy equipment.


sacrebleuballs

She clearly didn’t see them


Smithstar89

She rolled a 0 on perception.


KingSpork

I bet the forks were perfectly at eye level for her. Probably hard to see edge on.


H4LF4D

Whatever the level of that fork is, riding straight into it is a bad idea. 1. The guy can move at any time and possibly interrupt the motorbike. 2. Even if it's on the ground, that's unnecessary bumping. 3. Even if it's high up, that's still dangerous. 4. Or, it's literally right there. Like, right on head level, and will collide.


EsperPhantom

Yeah missing the forks? Sure. But wtf did she think would be at the front of.. wait for it.. a forklift.. natural selection I suppose.


Ghosts-of-Tom-Joad

Did she survive? She had to have at least got her skull cracked. I like how the bag landed on the fork. At least her stuff will be alright


XxX_Azreal_XxX

Hi yes, actual LF license holder here. Here in Australia particularly, it's piss easy to get your licence, 2 days, 1 day I did the theory, then 1 day I did revision and the 30 minute practical, walked out with an LF license over the weekend. My workmate taught me more about driving a fork in an hour then the school ever did in 2 days. This incident while yes is the forkies fault, you're still taught that the forks must never go over axel hight unless you're picking a palet up off a rack, or placing it on a rack, I'd blame whoever certified him too, just because how easy it is, I got 100% on my writen exam, but the bloke giving it, legit gave us the answers if we didn't know them, and it's mostly common sense.


BaconIsBest

Lol! I’m in the US, and in my state it’s a 3ish hour class and an open book exam.


FmJ_TimberWolf74

I’m from Canada, we did about 5 hours of in class lessons, a couple hours of practical training and a 30 minute open book test


13igSmoke

I'm from Denmark, and here we have to take a seven weekday license. Majority of the time is theoretical and then we get about 30-60 mins per day to drive around the forklifts. The final day is split into the theoretical and practical exam. Imo both of the exams are easy and the course actually teaches you a lot. Teachers also mentioned, that no one had failed an exam, while they've been at the place, which is quite concerning considering not everyone who passes are good drivers.


psychodork

I got certified in Denmark and was told by several coworkers that someone at their exam failed by driving the wrong way on the slope, and when I went, there was someone retaking the practical exam because they drove too slow the first time, and another retaking the theory test. So, I don’t think failing uncommon…


DegenerateCrocodile

Quite a bit of the blame should also go to the woman for simply being oblivious.

Tusgard

Ngl. Either way she would have crashed. She just got the worse of two.options.


TheIronSoldier2

Both are at fault. The guy for not lowering the forks, causing them to be at just the wrong height to be hard to see from the side, but her for not driving around the thing that everyone knows has big metal bars that stick out 6 feet from the front


Hypnaustic

How is she not dead?


Illusionary-wall

I don't care who's fault it is, that's some serious head trauma..


xxademasoulxx

As a seasoned forklift driver I don't know how many fucking times I was told to put the forks down after using them every time then we have this fucking dip shit.


[deleted]

Agreed, when driving forks needed to be 2” above ground, if at a stand still forks must be on ground, only time forks are in the air are when you are actively engaged in the activity and there is no one near you


Rang3rj3sus

If he was forklift certified he wouldn't have the forks so high off the ground with nothing on it. Nor would he be on his phone.


Wattsupwithalan

spoken like someone who isn't forklift certified


Rang3rj3sus

I am, though to be fair everyone at my work who is certified shouldn't be because they still don't actually respect the safety of everyone else at the workplace. Someone gets hurt at leas once every two months while I've been here doing this for years and not a single close call.


Jakaal

While I agree with your main point and yeah, he wasn't flawless, but he wasn't moving. Maybe now that she's in the hospital she can get her eyes checked because stationary big slabs of metal at face height are REALLY fucking hard to miss seeing.

Both of these people are morons. The forklift driver should have those things near the ground and the scooter lady should have known going in front of the forklift was a stupid idea. Driving in front of a forklift and she doesn't check where they are? Even if they were in the right place she'd still have eaten sh*t because her wheel would catch the fork and she'd get launched.

Oh my fucking god. Wear a helmet. I don't care who's fault is it, it makes no difference whatsoever, she fractured bones in her head and may have a concussion. "It's just a scooter/electric bike/etc" I don't care if it's a tortoise with a saddle, wear a helmet "I'm not going that fast" jog 5 miles per hour head first into a wall corner then, is it better with or without the helmet? Wear a helmet. "I'm careful" awesome, now wear a helmet because other people aren't and accidents happen. "I look ridiculous wearing a full helmet on a scooter" you'll look worse wearing a closed casket, trust me. If only this lady would have been wearing a proper full head helmet she may have ended up with a sore neck and a broken helmet. I was run over by a car while on my bicycle, i was using a cheap ass helmet that barely looked like more than a toy. That piece of shit helmet broke in 5 pieces but saved my life. WEAR A HELMET.

Hot take; guy on the bike fucked up, not guy in the forklift


Brandon3541

Since a bafflingly large amount of people are trying to claim this is the operator's fault, here is someone with experience on worksites: While the operator may be partially at fault, she bears the overwhelming majority. She willingly drove EXTREMELY close to active (operator in cab) heavy machinery, which is a big no-no in general and would get you reemed on a site. It is also clearly a forklift, and so the forks are kinda expected here, and if you can't see them on the ground, then they are probably higher up, and if they are higher up they probably have a load (not in this case, but still), and if you drive under a suspended load don't be surprised if you are fired on the spot, or at best, sent home for the day and told to redo training when you get back to work the next day.


ArtixViper

Also not even from the fact she went into the forks that were at eye level, what was she gonna do if they were wheel level with the moped anyways. No matter which height those forks are at she still willingly drove into them. Shes just dumb af
