Remember, if the wind speed is more than 25mph, do not use aerial lifts. Always wear fall protection while working in a bucket.

NORTH EAST, Md. -- A State Highway Administration employee working on an overhead sign at an intersection in Cecil County died Thursday after falling from the aerial bucket of his truck.
According to state police, Mickael Locklear fell at about 12:30 p.m. Wednesday at the intersection of Maryland routes 272 and 273 in North East.
Police said Locklear, 45, of Baltimore, was in a bucket about 20 feet above the ground. Witnesses said the wind was already blowing hard when a strong gust came up and they saw Locklear fall from the bucket.
Authorities pronounced Locklear dead at Christiana Hospital in Delaware early Thursday afternoon.
Officials said Locklear was fixing a twisted road sign and fell after a strong gust of wind blew him into the sign and he became entangled in the sign and a traffic signal. They said he was not wearing a protective harness -- as required.
An autopsy will be conducted in Delaware. Maryland Occupational Safety and Health is investigating the accident.
