That is a truly tragic story. How could any group have a hayride and not take some precautions for safety. Years back I read on this site where guys were making two-wheeled carts that were equipped with many flashing lights powered by 12 volt batteries. I perceived this cart to be the size of a small lawn cart that you would pull behind a riding mower.

This sounded like one heck of an idea to me as it could be attached to any equipment and it is down in the line of sight of any vehicle. A simple battery tender could be used to keep the batteries charged. For that matter, you could use one of the solar battery chargers that are designed as back-up to electric fences. It would keep the batteries charged by letting it sit outside. Due to the small size it would not take up any space. Just seemed like a no-brainer for those guys who have to transport equipment on public roads.
