Tractor Safety Course
Bucks County 4-H is offering a course on tractor safety
to youth age 14 to 16 years of age. Whether the youth
plans to work on their parents* farm, a neighbor’s farm,
or work for landscaper, this course may be an essential
learning experience.
The course will be held in the Doylestown area. The
course involves attending evening classes and then pass
ing a tractor driving test to finish the course.
Upon successful completion of the course, students
become certified to perform certain tasks on the farm that
they would otherwise be prohibited from doing under
child labor and Pennsylvania laws. The law states that
youth in the 14 to 16 age group must complete a tractor
safety course before being allowed to drive a tractor.
Preregistration is required. For more information or to
register, call the Bucks County extension office at
(215)345-3283 and ask for Celeste. Deadline for registra
tion is February 19. Evening classes will begin on Febru
ary 22.
