You're a lucky guy. Loaded or not, tractors often lose just as bad. I'd tell you to be careful, but that don't always work.

The passenger in the Cherokee and the young soon to be mother (8.5 months along) in the Tahoe were killed outright. The driver of the Cherokee was dragged out with some burns and other injuries, smelling and breathing like just crawled out of a beer keg. The maximum he can get is 28 years for all of that. Turns out that 3 others in the family of the soon to be mother had been killed under similar conditions in the past as well. Incredible. Mark
