I was on an IH 544 row crop and I almost got hit one time. I was on a two lane road, speed limit 30, in a no passing zone. I gave a hand signal. I looked back and I was clear. Then a guy came around the curve there in town behind me. I started to turn left and almost lost the front axle. Dad was coming to follow me, but instead followed the idiot that passed in the no passing zone and almost bought a tractor. Ya, 30 mph isn't fast, but he was going about 50. It would have been a hard lick had the front axle come out and I eaten steering wheel. A neighbor got clipped on his MF 398 I think. The rearended him and cliped the left hand tire. Broke the axle housing and rear case. Then insurance didn't want to pay cause the guy at fault said he didn't have flashers on. He did, and the smv sign. He ended up with a new tractor after it was all over. He was lucky he didn't get seriously hurt.
