Jonboy, I agree with the others and suggest this....
1st...Pick the least traffic day.
2ns... get as many lights on your tractor to work as possible. And BE SURE your SMV emblem is clearly visible, and on the LH side of the disk and one on the rear of the tractor.
3rd...Get you wife or someone to follow you, to run as blocker, with their emergency flashers on.
I would not! I would not move at night under any circumstances. My brother-in-law was hit one night by a man moveing a 8 row non-folding rotoary hoe....Totaled his pu. He could have been killed, but he suspisisioned that the tractor was carring something wide. I think a Highway cop would not look favorably at you if something happened. At least on a bright day they can't say they didn't see you! Hope this helps.
Later,
John A.
