Be alert – Be patient on highways during harvest
With harvest just nicely getting started it is the time of year when we’ll be seeing a lot of very large farm equipment on highways.
As producers are working hard to bring in the 2020 crop motorists and farm equipment operators have a responsibility to keep highways safe for everyone.
SGI’s Tyler McMurchy said this is an agricultural province and we want to make sure the people who work hard to keep food on our tables are able to do so and get to where their going safely.
He said farm equipment is very slow-moving and if you find yourself behind a big piece of machinery – be patient, and pass when it is safe to do so. Farmers are usually only transporting their machinery from one field to another, so they won’t be on the road for long.
