Default Re: MaxJax 2 post car lift

A friend of my friend was using a floor jack to change the oil on his Mustang. He didn't use jack stands, and the jack lowered pinning him under the car. His wife found him, but it was too late to save him.

How long before OSHA will require safety catches on floor jacks. Not that I want or need any more government intervention, but it wouldn't surprise me if it comes in the near future.
