    Very lucky indeed,if anyone was sitting in one of those cars they would have been seriously injured.

    It is obviously a John Deere Tractor, one of the most reliable manafacturers in the world. It will be interesting to see how long it takes John Deere to make a statement about the incident.

    I am sure that this machine will have to undergo rigorous inspection by the manafacturer.

    Was the tractor compounded? I am sure that there are journalists working on this story trying to ascertain the facts.

    Of course the most important thing here is that no one was injured! And this has already been proven beyond doubt.

    Most tractors have been tearing about this year, especially this week to beat the rain. Not the only incident either. All that damage for subsidised poor grain. It is incredible that there was no harm to anyone, i know the spot well. The way cars hog the narrow part of the road there, when there is ample parking 50 yards away, defies logic, pure lazy.
