Unfortunate that this happened. It appears that the driver of the combine didn't see the van and pulled out. I grew up on the farm and started driving these large pieces of equiptment down the road when I was about 13. Most people just dont pay attention or get impatient and accidents happen. If you see a large piece of machinery coming down the road and he can't get over just pull in a drive and let him by.

Had a call last night of a car crash, guy driving a ferrari got side swiped by a tractor pulling a cultivator about 10 at night. They met on an interstate overpass. The driver of the ferrari never slowed down when he met the tractor. Left huge skid marks and he wanted the driver of the tractor arrested for fleeing the scene lol. Farmer never knew they even hit. **** rich city people !!!
