A LOT of weird shit can happen when you're handling that much material over rough ground, on snow and ice, and in searing heat in the summer.

Much different environment in your case. Mine is all manufacturing industrial use and all indoors. You have WAY more potential of accidents. Hell, I can't even consistently get our guys to complete inspection reports at the beginning and end of each shift.
