Escalator/Elevator Injuries

When clothing, shoes, hands, feet, or skin are caught in moving escalator parts the results include bruises, cuts, crush injuries and even amputation. Limbs may be caught in doors, and serious injury occurs when cables fail and passengers plummet to the bottom of the shaft. Slip or trip and fall injuries are also common in escalators and elevators. This may be due to improper maintenance causing misleveling.
