Tractor Runovers Warn and How to Prevent Them
Submitted by H and H Insurance, the warning cites 15 Canadian deaths and 80 hospitalizations yearly from tractor runovers, especially in warm months. It details causes such as co worker runovers, falls from moving tractors, and jump starting, with safety steps like visible clothing, turning off ignition, using hand signals, and engaging farm safety programs. It urges reflective practices, simple standards, and third party help, noting support from CF A, Farm Credit Corporation, CFARH, and Agriculture and Agri Food Canada for safe play areas for children on farms.
