Usually, accidents happen as a consequence of the forklift turning over, risky driving, and falls or driver or equipments from a forklift. Quite a few tipping accidents take place when put load on or off to a forklift. In accordance with the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), 26 percent of all forklift fatalities happen because a forklift turned over and compressed a person under it.

OSHA considers forklift truck accidents to not following safety measures, unsatisfactory training of drivers, and the failure to put safety regulations into effect. As a result, OSHA has put safety standards in force that want all forklift drivers to go through a training course and to be certified earlier than driving a forklift.

However, the following examples of stinginess will take some beating, and although some are admittedly quite funny, the majority are just down right insulting.
