Had a cousin killed loading a loader on his trailer. Hard to tell amount of times he loaded and unloaded over the years, but it only takes one time to end it all. Also saw a guy come off his trailer with tricycle front and no center ramp. He loaded and unloade like that all the time, not one time did he have any problems. Opps, I forgot, there was the one time ! As he was backing down the ramps and steering the front to the left, nice and easy, the right brake for some goofy reason locked. In a split second the tractor was sideways going off the ramps and rolled over. He was able to get clear and except for his pride and a few bumps he was ok,tractor wasn't so lucky. It can happen to any of us at any time, so why take extra chances ? It only takes a couple extra minutes to add years to our life and a split second to take away the rest of our years.
