Texas Dozer Transport Rollover 2026

During a period of heightened wildfire danger in the Texas Panhandle in February of 2026, multiple Texas A&M Forest Service resources from other areas of the state were sent to that area to preposition. After several days, the fire danger decreased, and many resources were sent back to their home units. While en route back to their home unit in Montgomery County, a Texas A&M Forest Service transport hauling a Type 4 tractor plow overturned when it exited Interstate 45 on an exit ramp with a sharp curve. Both occupants of the transport were taken to the hospital, treated and released. They were back to full duty less than a week later.
