Ted RE....When she got off, the sand began to crumble around her and she got buried up to her waist, I think, at which point the b-dozer kept moving towards her, then over her and then when it backed up, it failed to lift the shovel as would be normal practice but rather dragged it back over her.

You ignorance is really showing here.. Normally the blade isn't lifted very far when backing up, if at all. A lot of times you would backdrag the blade to take out the crawler tracks, and leave a smooth surface.


On construction sites, when they are piling up debris or soil, they life the shovel so it doesn't pull the stuff back down.
