[QUOTE="Ivorbiggun, post: 7537215, member: 142831"] H&S on farms is a complete joke. Farmers doing it the quickest cheapest way. one thing I’ve noticed recently as tractors get bigger is the size of the front linkage attachments being used. ie hoppers, tanks, weight blocks etc. How are you supposed to see coming out of a farm gateway/ t junction. I saw a sprayer with front mounted tank in our local dealers the other day which was shocking, so I roughly stepped it out and it was 7.5 metres from the drivers seat to the front of the tank. An accident waiting to happen. Just goes to show farmers don’t give a toss about the guy who has to drive it or other road users. yes you can say it’s the maufactuter’s fault for building the thing but it was marked up as sold, if farmers didn’t buy them they wouldn’t bother making it. untill h&s and the police get more involved as to what goes on on farms things will only get worse.
