Not a tractor that I can recall but my old IH Loadstar nearly got away from me and ended up in the trees. I had a neighbour combining flax for me a few years ago and he was working a bit after dark. I had climbed up into the cab with him to discuss something while the hopper was unloading. I happened to glance to the left and wondered why he was driving the combine forward. Suddenly realizing the combine was still but the truck was rolling! Down that combine ladder fast as I could and took off after the Loadstar. Which by now was gaining velocity on the long and gradual slope in the field. I knew that would end up in a bush with a huge rock pile. If the trees didn't stop it, the rocks would. Seemed like it was rolling pretty fast by the time I got close enough to jump onto the running board, get the door open and hit the brakes. I forget just how close it was but seems like it did not have much further to go to hit the trees. I almost always leave that truck in gear with the engine shut off. Apparently not that time.
