Hitting electric poles and lines can be deadly. Luckily, no one was harmed in the harvest-related accidents earlier this week.
Help us have a safe harvest this year, and stay aware of electric infrastructure when operating large equipment. If you do hit a pole or green electric box, stay in the cab and call us. Do not leave the cab unless absolutely necessary. If you do need to leave the cab, jump out, landing with both feet together, and hop at least 50 feet away to prevent electrocution.
