Tracked Dump Truck Working on the Groin

The groin is the short spur jetty. Komastu CD110R dump truck was busy bringing stones down to repair it during low tide. The new stones are lighter in color against the older stones which are covered green algae. With this video, I suggest turning on the speakers. The excavator carefully loads three stones onto the truck. The driver of the truck is busy working on paperwork in the cab and doesn't hear the horn beep from the excavator signaling he is loaded. The excavator starts to move some other rocks around the pile and then realizes the truck hasn't moved. He brings the excavator claw eye level with the cab of the truck, shakes the claw and beeps again, finally getting the driver's attention.
