I'm gonna say this again. The head needed to come off that combine before it went down HWY 77. I know there are laws of husbandry permitting us farmers to drive our wide machinery down the road without oversize permits, but we also have to use our brains a little before we go on the road. I've plopped a head down on a trailer many times and yes it is time consuming plus it takes an extra man to pull the header trailerr, but sometimes you've gotta do it. Blocking two lanes of a four lane is plain arrogant! If the combine would have been going down a lonely gravel road it would have been a different story. Like I've said before, I've driven a combine hundreds and hundreds of miles on the road, and a lot of times it was with a 30 or 40 foot head. But the head is off the combine when I'm on a highway, no matter what state of the union I'm in. I too have had my share of encounters with dumb drivers but I'm not going to turn into a big bully just to get back at them. Life's too short for that. Jim
