So, we have armchair jurists speculating about the culpability of the tractor driver, not unlike "pallet theorists" speculating about the purpose of "pallets in fields."
Per Sherlock Holmes: "It is a capital mistake to theorize in advance of the facts."
What do we know about the scene of the incident?
We do know the address of the the tractor driver: 167 Richard Glen Drive, St. Johns, Florida.

As the incident was reported to stem from a property dispute, it does not seem unreasonable to assume that the incident took place near the perimeter of the highlighted property. Is it too much to ask the armchair jurists to search the St. Johns County records for easements, etc. associated with that property and adjoining tracts?
