Some more neat info...surprising information about the "new operator". Check out this link and see what the engineers are designing to predict overturns!

Tractors and Rollover Protection Stability/Instability Feedback Monitoring
Major findings:
Uncomfortable slope: 12.92ー+/-.58
Would Not Drive slope: 19.06ー +/- .66
Participants were less able to accurately estimate angles as slopes became steeper.
Novice operators were 6.1 times more likely than experienced operators to accurately estimate roll angles, and 96% more likely to properly rank these angles.
Younger operators were 49% more likely to accurately estimate the angles than older operators.
The stability indicator influenced angle estimations of novice operators
