Demise by Driverless Truck

2013 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

On 18 November 2013, 31-year-old Nichole McAlister was assisting a friend attempting to fix a pick-up truck aside the highway late at night in Tucson, Arizona. During the repair effort, she was asked by the friend to put the vehicle into gear. Standing astride the vehicle, she inadvertently shifted it into reverse. She was knocked beneath the wheels, and the truck backed over her. But to add terminal insult to serious injury, the driverless truck circled back and twice more ran over her according to her friend. She was pronounced dead at the local hospital a short time after the incident.

Thanks, but you'll find a lot of similar stories in our archives. It's rather surprising how often people will get run over by their own vehicles while trying to repair them, forgetting to set the brakes, etc.
