[AT] Tractor / truck accident - fatality

[JParks]

That is true Mattias....and some people do not take advantage of the
negative lessons shown to them by others.  About 20 years ago, a logger in
our area was electrocuted by operating a crane too close to a power line.
Six months after that, the same thing happened to his son.  On an old
Michigan crane we have here in the yard there are warning signs posted on
the cab sheet metal telling you to stay 6' away from power lines........That
warning distance, to me, is about 100 feet too short.

When talking about accidents. I saw on text-tv this night that a man had
died felling a tree. He had somehow been hit in the head by the tree when
felling it above groundlevel lifted by an excavator operated by his son.
If you do to many no-no's at the same time, too many times (which could be
the first) something bad WILL happen.

> I was on the local school board with both of these men.  The one that died
was a year ahead of me all thru school.  I don't know exactally what
happened, probably wouldn't want to, but apparently the loader took the top
of the cab off.
