First off this is not my compactor or operator, I'm there to do the grader work with my grader helping a friend contractor. Really not all the operators fault the POS wouldn't steer after making a right turn and he could not get stopped in time. Thankfully he is OK, no seat belt so he bailed off the high side, could have been bad, belt up out there.
