Hicks was born 3 December 1984. In August 2014, he was driving a sewage waste truck downhill on Adelaide’s South Eastern Freeway. He lost control of the truck due to faulty brakes and the resulting crash at Glen Osmond killed two people. A report prepared for the court in 2017 concluded the truck’s brakes were faulty and that neither Hicks nor Cleanaway were aware and police charges were dropped in January 2019. The accident result in Hicks having his right leg amputated. Hicks had held his heavy vehicle licence for a month, and it was his third day working for that employer. It was the first day he had been alone on the job, and he was assigned an older, different model of truck than he had driven before. In December 2019, he told the court (in proceedings against his former employer) that he had not been asked if he knew how to drive a manual truck down that long descent. The truck’s brakes failed, and it collided with three cars waiting at traffic lights at the end of the freeway. Two people were killed, another left with serious injuries, and Hicks’ leg was amputated to extract him from the wreckage of the truck.
