In the USA if that combine operator had been employed in any other industry besides farming he would have been required to have escort warning vehicles or a police escort to be over the center line of a highway. Effectively he was shutting down the road to other traffic in both directions so he could move his combine. Construction companies, house movers, mining companies, and manufacturers of large industrial equipment all have much higher restrictions and requirements to move similar sized equipment, to reduce the danger to other motorists.
A combine that large is probably working together with other equipment and operators like: grain cart; semi trailers, tillage equipment; etc. Why not use one of those smaller vehicles as an escort?
