Man injured after tractor hit by car | Duluth News Tribune
Another neighbor was hit by a vehicle last winter about 4 miles from this accident. In this accident Mark suffered multiple fractures of both arms, broken ribs, plus additional injuries but is able to move his legs and appears not to have spine injuries. He had just finished cutting a field near the accident, was roaring toward his home when hit from behind. His tractor and Discbine were still crumpled in the ditch when I drove by yesterday. As I understand, the driver hitting him tried to pass, saw someone in other lane, pulled back into his lane and was going to fast to avoid Mark. Mark had an older tractor without ROPS or cab.
