Randy I am sorry your neighbor got killed this week. I know people drive fast on gravel roads. I also do not think there should be ATVs or UTVs of any sort on the road either. Cars/trucks are designed to protect the passengers in accidents. ATVs and UTVs are not designed that way. Then add in the size difference and you have things like this happen.
A few years ago four teenagers on a Gator where all killed when they were hit by a truck running a stop sign. Yes the driver of the pickup caused the accident BUT if those teenagers had been in any kind of passenger vehicle they more than likely would have not have been killed. Them driving that Gator like it was a car/truck put them there for the wreck.
So in your neighbor's case his driving his ATV out into the road put himself in harms way. Then you add in a hill/gravel plus speed/driver possible inattention an you have the makings of a horrible accident.
The driver may or may not be at fault. We do not know and you do not either. Since there was a fatality the police will investigate it vigorously. They can usually recreate the accident pretty well. They can then tell what really happened.
Also watch how your talking about people. I am a bearded redneck to most people. I guess I need to have a military hair cut and smell like perfume to get respect?????

The nuts and bolts of nuts and bolts is an interesting and essential piece of knowledge that applies to our older tractors. An improperly torqued capscrew on an engine head or a shear bolt that is too hard on the driving shaft of a bushog can create havoc and make an expensive and uncalled for repair. Let�s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
