Accident Overview
During an aerial application flight, the pilot maneuvered the aircraft under a wire to cross a road and transition to another field. The pilot observed a vehicle traveling on the road and believed it would clear as he crossed. As he continued, the right wing of the aircraft struck the right rear of a cattle truck. Following the collision, the pilot was unable to maintain altitude, and the airplane subsequently impacted the ground.
Sequence of Events
The pilot had been performing aerial application operations. While transitioning between fields, he chose to fly under a wire spanning the road. He noted a cattle truck moving along the road but judged that there would be sufficient clearance. However, at some point during the crossing, the aircraft's right wing contacted the right rear portion of the truck. The impact caused a loss of altitude control, and the aircraft descended to the ground.

The extent of damage to the aircraft and the cattle truck is not specified in the source. The source does not mention any injuries or fatalities.
