      Forklifts are often operated inside warehouses, backrooms, and behind stores and in store parking lots. Cars don’t drive there, but employees, vendors, inspectors and customers walk in these areas. I’ve yet to see a forklift on a highway or high traffic road. Which is why forklift operators have spotters.
