Watch for Farm Equipment on the Roads

With harvest season in full swing in Michigan, drivers will see more farm equipment on the roads. The Michigan Farm Bureau urges caution and patience as farmers move crops. Despite a nearly 10% drop in farm equipment crashes last year, there were still 195 accidents, with 44 injuries and three fatalities. Drivers should slow down when they see the slow-moving vehicle sign and be prepared for wide turns. Sharing the road safely ensures everyone gets home without incident.
