Reply to comment by Jthundercleese in Portland man laughed ‘maniacally’ while chasing pedestrian in stolen $80k forklift, police say by Jorgyjorg32

I could certainly see it argued either way. I guess it would come down to how much time and money you have to argue with OSHA if they decide that it includes the keys.

I would definitely argue with someone from OSHA over it. When a car's controls are in neutral, no one ever assumes that means the key is not in the ignition or specifically not in the car whatsoever. I would definitely cite my 8 years of driving lifts and dozen times talking to OSHA where it was no a problem. If they want keys stored when machines aren't in use, that's got to be written specifically.
