In almost 60 years, I've known several people who either got killed or seriously injured with a tractor.

1 was a corn picker accident. Lost an arm
1 baler accident. PTO shaft cost a leg
3 roll-overs due to loaders raising loads too high on unlevel ground. 1 death, 1 paralized, one VERY lucky.
1 round bale rolled back down a raised loader, killing the operator (on the day he was to be married)
3 traffic related "on road" accidents. 1 rear-ended while hauling round bales. Neither driver could see the other guy. Auto driver lost life. 2 others were ran off the road by a passing autos that cut back in too quick. One killed, one seriously injured.
1 ran over while trying to jump start standing on the ground in front of back wheel.

That's 10 AVOIDABLE accidents, with 5 deaths. Please AVOID being #11 on my list. BE CAREFULL
