It happens but there are methods (dock locks and dock lights and weel chocks/locks and bay door guards) and procedures (key boxes) to prevent this.
That said; how the driver didn't notice a lift driving into the back, as much as that shakes the truck, I don't understand. -
The number one reason for wheel chocks. I was at a receivers dock and a fellow rookie driver pulled out as the forklift was entering the container and the forklift nosedived off the dock. Luckily the forklift operator didn't get hurt. Both forks cleanly broke off at the bend. It was an inside dock and made a hell of a racket. The driver was an older woman a few months out of driving school. I'd been driving about 10 years and all the young drivers started calling me " old man" and I was only 32 at the time. They would hunt me down for advice because they knew I wouldn't yank their chain or belittle them. We had some older drivers that did road work but didn't make much more money than I did. The road guys just couldn't stand the games played in the office. I had a friends + a girlfriend + a pet dog. Pet policy's didn't exist in those days.

My cousin drove a lift truck off a loading dock, but damn, 😐

One more question… Where was the operator's seatbelt?
-
Is he dead
-
In my 15 years driving truck, I have never done that.
-
This is why some distribution centers make the driver drop trailer and pull away
-
No excuse , in that tractor you can feel it if 15000 pounds goes in your trailer ! No idea how that driver could have done that 🤯! Exept for just being inattentive !
-
Watch close/ broke the forks right off that forklift
-
Just stop with your shitty fucking commentary

Whenever I am being loaded or unloaded I can notice when the frokloft is entering and exiting the truck it moves a lot. there is no excuse 🤦🏻♂️ I'm sure that man is from India They surprise with their great driving skills.

Always wear your seat belt while operating a forklift safety first

I've been out here 4 million miles I have never pulled away from the dock without checking in 30 years of driving a truck I've never seen this done ever since the new changes and new people or new drivers too lazy to get out and check on the inside what's going on 😅but they sure know how to put those four-way flashers on and ride around real slow😂😂😂😂
-
He should’ve felt him moving around from the cab to the trailer 🤦🏽🤦🏽😂☠️
-
This almost happened to me more then once working warehouse almost got into a fight with the driver for pulling out
-
The driver should have gotten out of his truck and checked first and were there any dock lights. I have never done this in my 30 years of driving
-
Happened to my guy at work he got paid up the ass same exact scenario.
-
Do you guys really all do this at least once? You guys aren’t that retarded?
-
They need to shock the wheels all the time !! That’s the first thing driver needs to do after park .
-
That truck isn't rolling like it's being pulled more like someone didn't set the brakes and just rolled once the forklift entered.
-
Most docks now lock the trailer to the dock. Make you pull the air line to the trailer.
-
Looks like the place in Goodyear that stores the cotton
