Tractor drivers riding kids on tractors We had a serous accident in a nearby community a few years ago with a grandfather was riding his 5 year old grandson his tractor. They stopped to let the kid off the tractor, and as he was getting off the tractor, he tripped over his granddads left foot that was on the clutch pedal. Tractor was in gear with motor reved, and blades spinning. Very tragic loss. The child was killed when bushhog ran over him. Granddad had to sell the farm. He could not live there anymore. We do want our kids to have fun and great memories on the farm. However we need to always ask ourselves what is the worst thing that could happen if I allow a kid to ride on the tractor or what ever activity he is doing with us. Do any of you feel the same as I do? Any thought’s on getting the word out? Thanks CT
