Thanks to Cibie01 for suggesting this angle, normally I would use a gopro for this, but the trouble with them is they have a very wide field of view so the tractor would seemed a long way away all the time. So I cable tied one of my tripods into the back of Johns pickup and used my main video camera.

narrow roadway! here the secondary gravel roads are wider . Wide enough that a tractor with duals can meet another tractor with duals and sneak past with the main drive tires still on the traveled portion. altho generally you drive down the grass on the ditch tops. Means the outside dual is hanging in mid air

It seems that the low point here with them. I ran one for a couple of days and wasn't very impressed. A cat will mop the floor up with the jcb. Heck there getting better than Deere over here. But I would like to test that jcb builds for the military, I think that runs about 65 mph.but that is a very good looking tractor my friend.

I agree the beacons are not flashing on the video at all, that is illegal. whether escort or not, also he pushes on and makes cars give way, i drive trucks with abnormal loads all the time if we behaved like that we would be in court, time vosa sorted this ridiculous situation. A wide vehicle is classed as an indivisible load or vehicle in other words cannot be made smaller. He could take the wheels off and should be made to do so. As for the speed well tractors cant go above a certain speed with implements behind especially wide ones. Not a legend an accident waiting to happen.

@1954BJohn 7 жыл бұрын

Yes permits are required over I think 2.9m. The trouble is alot of farmers especially in East Anglia regard the PUBLIC roads to be nothing more than an extension of their farm tracks. The 'narrow' roads haven't alter - its the tractors getting bigger and bigger that's the problem. The damage they do to the verges and edges of roads has to be seen to be believed. All the cops do is turn a blind eye.

always amazed how farmers get away with driving oversize loads on the road that anybody else would need permits for. how wide was that tractor with the twin wheels ? why didnt they get fitted in the field? would have made getting past the red car a lot easier. i also notice that you expect car drivers to slow and move over , yet you are the one causing the obstruction.

@willfillms 3 жыл бұрын

They would have a police movement license, and due to being over a certain width they need an escort. They're complying with the rules and regulations. Not sure youve ever fitted Duel wheels before but its best done on concrete and not in a field! I don't want to get even more muddy fitting them. Its common sense to move over for the bigger vehicle to allow it through! Plus dont know where he would back up too being that width its easier for the smaller cars to make way! 30 seconds of their time isn't the end of the world! Nothing illegal is going on at all and very much following the book!
