The truck was making a wide turn onto Range Avenue at I-12 in Denham Springs when the top of it bumped the bucket, flipping the man upside down."That is a mandate we have. When you're in that bucket truck, you'll have that harness on," Raiford said., said, "What I was most surprised by was that there was no signs or lanes blocked off, and the other workers were in the truck, in the air conditioning.""Anytime there's people working in the roadways, there's signage that's required or there's barricades saying, this part of the lane will be closed," Raiford said.
