Actually height of centre of gravity has no more than this to do with falling over. As long as the centre of gravity of an object remains within the base of that object, then the object will not tip over unless other forces act thus to do. Staight fact of physics. Try it with a box on the table or carpet. Now when the c.o.g. is that much higher, or the base is a different size or shape, there may be some difficulty in recognising when the aforementioned limit (for tipping over) is about to be exceeded. Operator error. You just don't expect one type of tractor to do the same things as well as another. Try driving a crawler on steel tracks and aggressive grousers at 15 mph on the road!! Not a good idea. Bicycles have only two wheels, but not everyone falls off, do they? Regards,RAB
