Not running down young drivers with this post there are many very good young drivers. That is a wheat harvesting rig. Most are driven by young drivers who do not know the territory and often there is no escort. He might have taken a wrong turn and gone down the wrong road. I have been there and done that more than once.

Some harvesters just use a nylon strap around the circumference of the front and rear wheels of the combine to hold it down. When we hauled combines in the Kansas, Oklahoma Nebraska area we got away with stuff a commercial hauler would never get away with.
