In an effort to raise awareness of the importance of agriculture, many rural school districts across the country sponsor Drive Your Tractor to School Days. One such event in my area raised an interesting question at the diner this morning. Is it legal to use un taxed or red dyed fuel in a tractor while operating on a public highway?
Here in rural Pennsylvania, the law is vague on the issue. It prohibits vehicular use of RDF on public roads. Is a tractor considered to be a vehicle?
In my farm community, many of us use RDF in our tractors on the highway. Citations of any kind are rare. I have never heard of one being issued for RDF use.
I’m curious how this is handled in other states and if any here can offer knowledge or personal experience.
