Early B said: (quoted from post at 08:27:52 05/16/15) My neighbor has a small "hobby farm" he works part time. He has an older Jeep he uses around his place that insted of getting farm use registration & plates, he just hung a orange triangle on the back of it. He does use it on the roads but just around the farm, he doesnt go into town w/it. Is that ok to do? I thought SMV's where for actual slow moveing vehicles ? Are the "fast tractors" in the post below that are traveling near high way speeds still required to have one ?
Usually that only works in Ontario if the vehicle has been modified to a purpose built farm machine to haul feed etc. Eg gravity bins, feed mixer body, round bale hauling etc.
All brakes, lights etc still has to work and be up to the standards that a licensed highway vehicles would have to meet. Don't get caught exceeding 25mph with the smv.
