I travel under the red triangle . government here has rules and regulations regarding slow moving vehicles . Limited to no super highway systems and must have at least one red light in the rear and some type of headlight system in front if you partake in night time activities . Under the SMV I am NOT supposed to pull off on the shoulder for faster traffic (sometimes here in the spring and wet times )shoulders collapse and upsets on roads are the second biggest cause of SMV roll overs , of off road equipment . I carry insurance for public liability under my farm policy but I do use my P W for farm use its 15 dollars a month I dont carry fire , theft or collision or any thing like that > Also exempt from pollution tests , mechanic fitness certifications every six months , off road tires , tire chains, can tow as many wagons or trailers as I can pull , plates , seat belts and NO weight restricts to loads or towed loads . Good thing I lose 30 or 40,000 a year farming so I can drive my power wagon for cheap ~ Copey P S the red triangle shows up very well for people to see and they stare right in to the back you "bang" !
