I saw Tuesday in city, the most terrible traffic accident. The
scooter rider was trying to change the lane and hit by the car from
left and bounced back to right and hit by the car from right. The
rider was killed instantly. The helmet was crushed so is the head. The
blood was spilled all over the street. The reason for this accident
is at the fault of the rider for lack of judgement.
The rider was young one around 20's years old. There is another reason
for the accident: America road is like NASCAR racing track, the most
unsafe place for scooter rider. Scooters are very popular in Europe,
asia, india. Riding scooter in typical American NASCAR street is like
speeding a bicycle along NASCAR drivers.

Hunting buffalo most terrible danger!

Accident in NASCAR buffalo herd cause crushed warbonnet and
limping horse.

Typical America NASCAR buffalo hunt like driving Italy without
Skip Barber race school diploma!

Hey! I was thinking the same thing! And all this time and his English hasn't
improved one little bit. If anything, he is regressing.

I just got my cushion-tired/counterbalanced forklift
accreditation for NASCAR logistics centre/warehouse.

I don't even really want the damn'd thing. But I got
a time-&-a-half 8-hour shift in, just for attending
the course on a Saturday. Morning. After a swing-shift
Friday. While coming down with a cold.

The rear-steering of lift trucks is somewhat familiar
to me; I can relate the maneouvering to marine craft
more than to automobiles (I've never driven a car.)
And there's a 3-dimensional awareness of a dynamically
shifting CoG that, as a cyclist, I can also relate to.
A rider on a bicycle contributes a "load centre".

The scary part of handling such a heavy motorized
vehicle is that there is no tangible sense of the
power & mass under one's control. Driving forklift
makes me miss my bike.

Things not to do on a forklift I have seen:

1. Turn into the wrong loading dock. Instead of entering a parked
semi-trailer, there was a 4-foot drop to the ground.
2. Looking to the side while driving, and hitting a building column
right between the forks.
3. Driving off the paved lot into the grass and getting stuck.
4. Turning too quickly, and dumping three pallets, each containing
several thousand empty plastic bottles.

ha ha ha, Red Cloud. What does your rant have to do with bicycles? Oh yes, I
remember--for you it is simply enough to rant and rave with no point at all.
It's time for your medications, little boy.

I [almost saw, mostly heard-of] a temp labourer getting
hit by a forklift. Fortunately, he was only brushed.
But he was nevertheless knocked off his feet, and possibly
(according to the hearsay) sustained a forehead goose egg.

AIUI, the victim had just pulled a palletized load o' goods
out of a can, and was extracating the hand pallet jack from
the skid when he got hit. The forklift guy that hit him feels
just horribly, gut-twistingly awful about it.

Ultimately, we /own/ our respective, individual responsibilities.

However, I opine that when a temp labour agency sends people to
a site, they should ensure that those people are acquainted
with the type of environment they'll be working in. And even
that isn't enough -- in other, similar places I've worked in,
the pedestrians have the RoW, and the forklift/high-reach/
narrow-aisle/walkie guys yield. In the place I'm working now,
it's the opposite. It's not fair to the workers to turn the
tables on 'em.

cheers,
Tom

Hi, RC. Do you still sing and ride like true bike?

I saw Tuesday in city,

How was she?

Quoted message said:

the most terrible traffic accident. The
scooter rider was trying to change the lane and hit by the car from
left and bounced back to right and hit by the car from right.

Was it a motor scooter or a classic push scooter?

Quoted message said:

The
rider was killed instantly. The helmet was crushed so is the head.

This helmet offered no protection to the rider, therefore by
inductive reasoning and triple negation, I infer that no helmets
offer no protection to no riders.

Quoted message said:

The
blood was spilled all over the street. The reason for this accident
is at the fault of the rider for lack of judgement.

The rider was exhibiting classic NASCAR White Penis Power behavior,
but without sufficient Penis to back it up. I would recommend that
Scooter WPP riders upgrade to fat ass SUV.

If it was a push scooter, then yes, the speed differentials are
comparable, but some motor scooters have sufficient penis power to
make them freeway legal. Unfortunately, they do not have as much
girth or length as fat ass SUV.

When I worked as a "light industrial" contract worker [1], we were given
no safety training, and not even provided the OSHA mandated personal
protective equipment (PPE) unless an OSHA inspector was visiting (a rare
occurrence).

[1] Temp is the wrong term, since we were NOT filling in for temporarily
absent full time workers, but being used as a disposal labor force that
did not have to be given any benefits.

Y'know what? I'm physically & mentally exhausted and spent
from having to drive forklifts around. More so than hand-bombing
junk (and subsequently filling orders) out of marine
containers from China.

It's killing me.

I'm finally operating motorized vehicles of some sort,
and it's killing me.

I hate it.

I luv my bike all the more, when I get the chance
to ride 'er.

I do luv my job, though. It's so much like computer
processing, except with reality instead of intangibles.
Logistics is all about input-process-output. Throughput
& turnover. Clearing bottlenecks and making things work
better. Putting out "fires" (f-ups created by lusers
[the day shift]) and keeping things organized and ordered.

Lord help me, I love it so much.

The Union has my job description down as "Material Handler."
Pfffft!!! Fsck that noise! I've gotta attend a union
meeting and propose they change it to "Logistics Technician."

cheers,
Tom
