Photos Where Heavy Machinery Was Not Properly Handled
Heavy machinery misused or mishandled leads to risks that could have been avoided. In the following images, you can see cranes bent, excavators about to fall, or tractors being used in a dangerous manner.
Training, safety, and caution are important when using heavy machinery. These photographs combine danger and drama and remind us of the importance of using the proper equipment to avoid accidents. The use of helmets, seatbelts, and harnesses are essential.
