I looked at the map of the NY snowmobile trail system, and that road is a part of it. That means that it would be groomed fairly smooth for snowmobile traffic, and that there would be some expectation of minimal hazards on the trail ahead. Where I ride in New England and Quebec there are lots of warning signs on the trails to be watchful of a trail groomer coming the other way, and they always have lots of amber lights on them. It is never pleasant to run into anything while on the trail, so it is incumbent on the snowmobile rider to not go so fast that he can't stop for an obstacle around the corner regardless of what it is. Law enforcement perhaps took the view that the farmer knew that he was on a snowmobile trail and thus should have made a better attempt himself to help avoid tragedy, like a beacon light that so many of us use on the roads, and to park in such a way that traffic could get around him. It appears that there may have been a little lapse in exercise of common sense on both sides.
