I agree, the WF makes a tractor somewhat safer, but it doesn't make it safe. With 8 boys and dad running tractors on steep terraced hill ground for years the only tractor ever rolled over on the farm since the switch from horses was an IH 886 with WF and roll cage. It was done on the back side of a terrace that had been worked with narrow front Bs, Hs, Ms, 300s, 560s, and 656s, the differance was the operator, my younger brother (12 years old at the time). For several years our primary loader tractors had narrow fronts also, didn't change until the horse power (and loader) needs to lift big bales two layers high on 2 ton trucks required a switch. A WF is safer, but any operator can make an accident with a stupid move.
