Hear is a Bad Unit

So I guess we should remove all bumpers, air bags and other safety features from cars and trucks then. My point is that if it's on the road operating at high speed it should have to meet the same safety requirements as vehicles and have the same safety equipment.

D7E, I'm sorry, but your response is appropriate and well said and so therefore out of character for this thread! Please restrict your comments.

NEVER suggest personal responsibility and accountability as candidates for any potentially dangerous activity. Instead prepare a list of those who can be shown to be liable.

Ag equipment has the right of way. Always has and always should. The day that the Government enforces bumpers and other so called safety devices on an AG machine will be a sad day.

Where did I say ALL ag equipment should have that type of safety feature? I was referring to the high speed tractor that this thread is about. If their going to make a tractor that goes as fast as cars do then it should have to meet the same requirements.

By the way aesanders, howdy! Looks like we lived rather close to each other at one time. I am originally from Taneytown, MD. Been going to the Woodsboro livestock auction since I was a kid.
