I live in the river hills of southeast Pennsylvania. Hardly a flat spot anywhere. I grew up driving narrow front tractors and still do to this day. Until the '70's about the only tractors we saw around here were narrow front except for the little ones like Farmall A's & Ford N's.
You don't have to live on a pool table to be safe on a narrow front tractor. You do have to understand what the tractor is capable of and what will cause it to roll over. You also have to have and use some common sense.
Anything will roll over if you are not careful, Wide front, narrow front, bulldozers etc. I've seen them all rolled over.
A narrow front can be operated safely if the operator is careful. A wide front has more stability than a narrow front, just don't get the idea that it can't go over on you too.
