At the risk of offending the Ford fans, this kind of accident always seemed to happen more often with the Ford 'N' series machines than any other make or model. Even with a drawbar attached, the mounting point is high up on the axle housing. Part of the problem is the fact that there are so many of the 'N' machines around, and they all seem to be in the hands of homeowners, rather than farmers. I spent 18 years running with the local rescue squad, and was an instructor for the Farm Rescue course. I've seen just about every kind of accident with equipment. Most of them were caused by complancency, rather than ignorance. Think about it..........
