Needs some work. I'd prefer a more scientific touch when describing the state the viewer is induced.

How do they know there is a loss of energy in the victems after one hour?
After all, you state all victems required Leathal Force to remove.
If they're not alive they can't be tired.
And if near death from the leathal force, you'de be fatigued anyway.
They probably tried other methods of extracting the driver for an hour, then noticed that the driver got all tuckered out.
Then they killed him.
SCIENCE.
Good catch, he didn't actually say they were removed from the vehicle before they became fatigued.
I suppose if they held the vehicle in containment with a subject, it would probably keep them awake and fighting, until the fatigue caused them to colapse. Killing them. Still, seems like you could recover them once fatigue caused the muscles to fail from the abuse. It never says it gives them super human ability. For reduced risk to personel, I suggest using patients from ward 32. Yes, I know that's a children's ward. What? It should reduce maximum resistance to removal, even with adrenal boosting. Failing that, there is the amputation of limbs. Fewer limbs should result in less ability to resist. Mind you, use terminal subjects only, we're on a budget.
Child subjects probably wouldn't be able to operate it very well. Those levers are pretty tricky for a short fellow, eh.
That's the point, they would be less able to use it as a weapon.
the vehicle is used only as a weapon by someone with a violent past. To someone with no violent history, it's simply a big orange forklift that's a hell of a lot of fun, pretty much.
I'm pretty sure this is me and any forklift ever.

I like this a lot. I think it might be better if we didn't have to kill people to get them out, though.
I think I'm seeing a contradiction here…
In the second paragraph of the description it says (my emphasis) "If a subject is already engaged in operating SCP-708, those that were previously compelled to operate it, and those that maintain visual contact with the object, report a feeling of jealousy, wishing to remove the current operator."
Later it says that termination is the only way to remove the driver. So surely there wouldn't be anybody who has previously been compelled to operate it. Unless it means anybody who has previously felt the compulsion, whether or not they were allowed to go through with it?
Big boys and their toys, eh? No offence meant, Sophia :) A good idea, upvoted! The only - and minor - problem I've got with this article is that I do not believe "destroy" is the right word when applied to human targets of SCP-708 operators… I thought about changing this myself but decided it would be better to clarify whether operators really seek to kill humans or would they just settle for noticeably harming them.
Also, the article linked to an external picture but I've already fixed that.
