Light utility vehicles now legal for ag use on Wisconsin roads

Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle signed Assembly Bill 574 into law on Wednesday. Authored by Representative Amy Sue Vruwink, the bill allows farmers to use light utility vehicles like Gators, Rangers and Mules on roadways for agricultural purposes. “You have to have headlights, taillights, a slow-moving-vehicle sign, you have to be 16-years-old and you have to be in agriculture to drive them on the road,” says Vruwink.
