A man who died when he was crushed by a dumper truck was only driving it due to a "spur of the moment decision", another worker has told an inquest.
John Sweeney, 45, from County Antrim resident died in the incident in June 2015 while working on a project digging trenches for fibre optic cable in Cornwall.
Michael Gallen told the inquest he was the person operating the dumper truck that day, he knew Mr Sweeney was experienced at driving a dumper, but he wasn't aware John didn't have a ticket to drive the dumper on that site.
He said he had seen Mr Sweeney move the dumper truck before so someone could get to their car but driving it wasn't part of his normal working practice.
Mr Gallen said while drivers are supposed to wear a seatbelt they sometimes didn't bother when making short journeys.
He said he had been using the truck all day and couldn't see why it had turned over - the slope wasn't ideal but the gravel was level enough.
The inquest continues.

Construction worker John Sweeney, who died under a dumper truck in June 2015, was not wearing a seatbelt and did not have the ticket needed to drive it, an inquest in Truro has heard.
A statement from his wife said he had a dumper truck at home and was a safe and competent driver of all the vehicles he owned.
Neill Gallagher, foreman at GCU which was contracted to dig trenches and lay cables for BT fibre optic broadband, told the inquest whatever your level of experience you needed a ticket to prove your training before operating such machinery.
He said he had worked with Mr Sweeney since November 2014 and had never seen him drive a dumper truck during this time.
Mr Gallagher said it was the last day of the job at Coverack, but the team of four was under no pressure.
The inquest continues.

In announcing the cancellation of the 2017 Dawlish Air Show the organisers say it was "especially frustrating seeing" other events being given council support.
A statement from the organising committee said the free event brought about 100,000 visitors to the area and significantly benefits businesses in Dawlish and other local communities.
It questioned the benefit to the community of other events supported by some local councils.
The committee hopes to stage another air show in the future and in the meantime will provide help and support to the Dawlish Celebrates carnival committee, if needed.

Do you think there should be more double yellow lines on our roads?
Image source, bbcProposals to add new lines or change those already in place are being considered at more than 200 locations across Devon.
Devon County Council says in many cases local people have suggested the idea and the lines help keep highways clear - but it's not going down so well with some who say the extra lines will make it impossible for them to find somewhere to park.

Workers who spotted John Sweeney, 45, trapped under a dumper truck used an excavator to try to move it off him, an inquest in Truro has heard.
The County Antrim resident was digging trenches for fibre optic cable in Cornwall as part of work he was doing to fund building his family a new home.
Coworker Alan Shimmon said the only time he ever saw Mr Sweeney operating the dumper truck was right before the accident.
He said Mr Sweeney had driven the dumper to a car park to get stones in pouring rain, but had not returned after 10 minutes.
Mr Shimmon said they found the dumper truck on top of John and tried to lift it off him with an excavator.
The inquest continues.

The decision to take no further action in a criminal investigation into the death of Susan Norman in a landslide will be reviewed to ensure it "remains appropriate".
At the time Devon and Cornwall Police carried out a two-year investigation into what it said was an "incredibly complex case".
It also considered evidence dating back more than 10 years, including a 60-page dossier of complaints that the residents had compiled and given to the council a month before Mrs Norman was killed.
Devon and Cornwall Police provided a file to Crown Prosecution Service at the end of 2014, which made the decision that no further action should be taken.
This decision was then independently reviewed under the victims Right to Review Scheme, with the same conclusion being reached.
Quote MessageI have requested a written copy of the narrative verdict and once received, I will discuss the matter with the Crown Prosecution Service to ensure the original decision reached in 2014 remains appropriate."
