Oh my Lord, I hope the operator was alright- that was scary!

Very scary!!! I think the only thing that could have saved him is if he dropped the tiller to the ground right as he gained speed.

^^^^
My thought also.
At least he was able to bail safely.
The dogs TRIED to help!

What an idiot, drop the tiller and get off the brakes

Assuming it's not AI....

This video raises an interesting question. We are told to always wear the seatbelt if the tractor has a ROPS. Assuming it had a ROPS and not just a canopy, do we think he would have been better off belted in as per the common advice or being able to bail like he did?

It isn't that difficult to reach down and unsnap it. In most cases you are better off staying with the tractor, but somebody always comes up with that one exception and treats it as gospel..

I doubt he'll do that again. I heard that he wants to borrow the neighbors tractor.
