A 1966 Farmhill tractor caused a serious automobile collision late Saturday afternoon near Lancaster Missouri.  Anita and Charles Jackson were reportedly driving eastbound on Missouri highway 136 near Lancaster when they approached a tractor being operated by 50 year-old Samuel Kerby of Glenwood Missouri.  The Jackson's car collided with the tractor and ran off the roadway.  Both Anita and Charles Jackson sustained serious personal injury and were taken by ambulance to Northeast Regional Hospital in Missouri.  The 2001 Chevy in which the Jackson's were traveling in was totally destroyed, as was the farm tractor owned by Samuel Kerby. 

Traffic accidents in rural Missouri commonly include incidents involving farm equipment that is traveling on the roadway.  There are particular laws and Missouri statutes that address the rules these farm operators must observe when traveling in large farm equipment.  Depending upon the circumstances, operators may be negligent per se in failing to observe these laws.  Contact St. Louis accident and injury lawyer Stephen Schultz today for a consultation to discuss the facts of your injury claim.
