To be fair, she (probably) did think of braking. Probably that whole time. She probably thought she was breaking. She was just dangerously and idiotically wrong.

You shouldn't brake check. Instead what you do is very gradually reduce your speed until your going like half the speed limit or lower. Really pisses people off. I call it passive aggressive road rage.

On video? Yes.

In the last year just within 15mi of where I work there have been 3 people killed from being shot on the interstate and for awhile there was some guy just randomly shooting cars as he drove around.

Also of note is that most (90+%) aren't actually native fauna, but disruptive species from other parts of the country who come here to make it worse. See also: TX

Not that I would behave very differently if I was in that situation, to be honest. There is no time to think when you fall out of the seat, it's all reaction.

Footage like these need to be included in forklift training for that reason, to drive home the idea that the seat belts are there for a purpose. If it falls over, you must stay inside the cage and keep all your limbs close to yourself.

The bigger problem was driving at high speeds with the forks way up in the air, person should be banned from forklifts.

Yeah, at my job it's flat out banned to be driving with the forks up at all and you can get your license pulled if a supervisor catches you doing it.

Stand up forklifts like the one in the video (the seat he is on is retractable) typically don't have seat belts equipped, and you are supposed to bail in the event of a tipover. From the OSHA website:

quote:

Note: Tipover procedures for other types of forklifts may vary. For example operators of stand-up forklifts with rear-entry access should step backwards off the forklift if a tipover occurs.

Oh god for sure. Its easy for me to sit on the sofa and go "bloody hell" but there's every chance that, in that same position, reflexes would have kicked in and my brain would have gone "this situation is no different to a falling cardboard box, and I should react accordingly"
