Yes, most tractors can work on a much steeper sidehill than you would think is possible, BUT....

Many rollover accidents happen on fairly shallow grades where the ground is soft or slippery. If a tractor slides sideways, it will likely roll over when it comes to a stop. These rollovers tend to be very serious, since the tractor can pick up a lot of energy as it slides downhill.

You will note that the highways crews all have ROPS. They need it.
