When my new tractor arrives, one of the things I would like to do is use the tractor to tow my 5x8 trailer to a nearby farm to get some seasoned manure to put on my gardens.
I have heard that a properly equipped tractor with lights, sign, etc... can travel for short distances on public roads. It is a 2-lane country road and the one-way distance is approximately 1 mile with no blind curves between here and there.
I plan to call my local state police detachment to find out for sure but wanted to get an idea of what to expect and or watch out for.
My main concerns are insurance requirements (if any) and the requirements for the trailer.
