Here in Southern Illinois, we had an elderly guy who passed a semi that was stopped for a flagman at a const site. He didn't realise the semi was stopped, and swooped in front only to hit a van in the rear. The van was the first vehicle stopped at the flagman, and the old guy's caddy pushed the van into the flagman, killing him.
Also had a guy drive past a forest of Road Construction signs and hit an S-10 pickup so hard the tailgate was mashed against the back of the cab. I asked the flagman how close he was when they hit. He said he'd made two big steps for the woods at the time of the crash - mebbe 15 feet. He was completely covered with gasoline from the pickup's ruptured fuel tank. No fire, thank God. And no long term injuries either, thank God. No skid marks either. . .
But I'd rather be around elderly drivers than cell phone users. Heck, I'd rather be around a drunk driver than a cell phoner.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
