A reminder when considering allowing children to ride in the cab of a tractor. Carrying passengers on farm machinery: It is illegal to carry children under 13 in the cab of an agricultural vehicle and it is unsafe.

Wonder how many of the farms on #thisfarminglife received visits from the @H_S_E after it was first shown. Children under 13 years in/on farm vehicles and helmets not being worn on ATVs. They would have some easy pickings for their Compliance visits thanks to @BBCTwo

A farm has been fined following the death of a worker struck by a telehandler. Incidents involving farm vehicles remain a major cause of death & injury in agriculture. Help us mitigate risks by implementing safer practices today. HSE press release 👉 bit.ly/3asuWXJ

Really frustrating to see quad bike use on Carol Vorderman’s TV programme tonight without a helmet being worn. How many more people must be seriously hurt or killed riding quad bikes in agriculture before things change? #atvsafety #wearahelmet #farmsafety

Boy, 4, killed in fall from JCB on farm after uncle 'failed to consider risks'

Little Harry Isaac Lee was obsessed with tractors and loved helping his uncle out on the farm - but a sudden fall led to tragedy when the loader ran over him

Trailer safety is hugely important. Get them checked, get the #tillypass @tilly_trailer #farmsafety

🚜 These shocking statistics are for agri trailers presented for inspection in the last 12 months. "Every trailer tells a story, don’t let anyone tell you that it’s unnecessary to remove the wheels." Brakes have to be seen to be believed @tilly_trailer @FSP_England #farmsafety
