At 7:00 p.m. on October 13, 2024, Employee #1 had just finished securing livestock and repairing fencing in a field. He began driving back to his camper in a Honda Pioneer side-by-side all-terrain vehicle (ATV). As he pulled out from the field onto Hunter Road, a paved roadway, a vehicle traveling in the same direction struck the ATV from behind.
