Some of the farm equipment that is coming out nowadays is more advanced than the cars on the roads. They have tractors now that you can just program a geographical area into it, and it will go do the work all on its own. I’m glad there are not too many laws against equipment on the roads here, farmers got to get places too right?
It used to be if there were 5 or more vehicles behind the slow moving vehicle they were required to pull off the road to allow traffic to go around them. Apparently that is no longer being enforced and I’ve noticed several farmers on 2-lane highways during the time when most people are trying to get to work and it’s impossible to get around the tractors because of heavy traffic. I understand sharing the roads, but these guys seem intent on creating traffic problems unnecessarily when they could easily either travel earlier or later or use alternate routes.
