My former brother in law drove a JD B around town for a few years and to work because he got a DWI and lost his license. But he could legally drive the tractor around town. He would pull a pickup bed trailer around with his wife and kids in the trailer

I tried to buy a tractor from a neighbor when I was 13 or 14 so i could drive on the road. He wouldnt sell it to me. I soon got a motorcycle the bicycle riding was done. Fortunately the merchantiile was only a mile away and they had gas.

There was a dairy close by when I was growing up.
The owners uncle had a serious drinking problem, multiple DWI, lost his license.
He drove the Ford 2000 with a loader everywhere! Especially to the hippy bar by the lake.
Drive it home, 2 AM, no lights, about a 3 mile drive around a winding dark lake road.
Lord must have been watching over him, did it for years until he died.

Wisconsin doesn't require a drivers license for 'implements of Husbandry' used on public way. Bar just north of Stoughton used to have parking lot with 1/2 tractors
Saturday evenings. Get license suspended or revoked for drunk or impaired driving, then farm tractor gets used for going to town. sometimes Amish Buggy is used for group
trips to town by English missing drivers license- New Glarus police knew a couple of buggy users were NOT Amish but since they had some 'horse sense' didn't try to drive
car, let them go with warning about night driving, needed lights--and police would be watching. this picture- might have been on way from one distant field to home farm
and needed some salt, bread. RN

Its a nice one!
Nothing wrong with that, my 3910 runs
over 25mph on the road so often use it
like a dump truck, it's been many
miles and naturally sat in many
restaurant and store parking lots too
along the way. Seems to be much more
common in England and other countries
to use tractors on the road too

I Like your Dump trailer.
Little town not far from me, Urbanna, Va., is on the Rappahannock River. Lots of folks either retire there, or have weekend homes on the water. Lots of them have enough money to pay for lawn care. Local fellow hired a bunch of teenagers, 13-15, to work for him. He also had a dump truck he drove himself, hauling rip-rap and driveway stone, so he couldn't be with them all of the time. He bought an 8N, went completely through it mechanically, and the young men used it to pull the equipment trailer from job to job. No license required, insurance was much cheaper, and the tractor could also be used for driveway grading and snow removal.

Over around Harrisonburg VA the Mennonites use tractors to travel all over the place,those big Fendt tractors will run about 50 MPH,they cross over to my side of the mountain on them sometimes.

When I lived in Michigan I did some work for this old guy. He had a hired man with a drinking problem and had lost his driver's license. The old man let him run around in a bigger Massey with a cab, rear tires were bald.
Lots of miles on pavement.

In Virginia if you never had a license you can drive a tractor on the road no problem,but if your license is revoked for whatever reason you cannot drive anything like a tractor on the road it'll be considered driving without a license.
