A 63 year-old rural farmer died following a tractor incident. The victim was driving tractor across a narrow bridge when he lost control and the tractor and victim fell to the creek bottom. The MO FACE Investigator concluded that in order to prevent future similar occurrences, employers should routinely identify potential hazards in the area where they work and implement appropriate control measures.
