This other thread made me think of something. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/safety/244265-seat-belts-near-miss.html
How many here know how to catch the tractor in the event of a roll over?
My wife nearly rolled her GT when she hooked a wheel a few weeks back. If she haven't heard me scream to turn left as the rights were leaving the ground and immediately spun the wheel, she would have rolled it.
If you feel the wheels leaving the ground, you have to spontaneously turn INTO the direction it's about to roll. If you're on a slope, you have to spin the wheel downhill to correct.
When those wheels reach a certain point, you've wrecked and can't ignore it and hope for the best as it continues on over. It's the same principle stunt drivers use when driving on two wheels.
I hope this helps at least one person that's never considered what to do if they encounter this situation.
