About 3.30am on Monday 23 July 2018, an unloaded Caterpillar 793C dump truck (DT122) collided with a Caterpillar 793D dump truck (DT139) at the East Pit of Bulga Open Cut Mine. The cabin of DT122 collided with the rear edge of the tray body of DT139 forcing the two pillars of DT122’s cabin inwards trapping the driver. Onsite rescue personnel freed the driver from the cabin and transported him to hospital by road ambulance. The driver suffered a fractured tibia, laceration to his right eye and minor cuts and bruises.
