Different situation, same principle: before I ever get into an elevator, I first make sure that, when the doors open, the car REALLY IS THERE. I have taught my children to do the same thing.
I believe the actor Pat Hingle lost part of a finger through a elevator accident?

Here in Dallas we had a tragic thing happen a few years back.
A caterer was pulling a cart and walking backwards to pull it onto the elevator (common practice).
When the elevator doors opened, he backed in and fell many stories to his death.
Horrible.
