Indiana State Police Offer Planting Season Driving Tips

Last updated on Friday, April 29, 2016

(UNDATED) - The Indiana State Police would like to remind citizens that the farm planting season is upon us and often requires large farm machinery to be on the road.

This requires drivers in rural areas to be alert to the possibility of encountering slow moving farm machines. Motorists should be prepared to slow or stop to avoid a collision with a farm machine turning into a field or driveway.

Tips for Farmers and Rural Drivers:

Before passing farm machinery:

Extra patience, careful driving habits, and the use of highly visible markings, and lighting will help prevent crashes involving farm machines and automobiles.
