Illinois State Police are reminding drivers to use caution this time of year while traveling on Ill. rural roadways.

As farmers move equipment from field to field, they will be usually traveling at speeds of 25 miles-per-hour or less. 

Drivers should be aware of farm vehicles and prepared to slow down when encountering them.

Here are some safety tips to consider when encountering agricultural equipment on the roadway:

-Farm equipment which travels at speeds of 25 mph or less is required to have a slow moving vehicle emblem (bright orange triangle) mounted to the rear of the vehicle.

-If traffic begins to back up behind the farm equipment, the operator should pull over in a safe location and allow traffic to pass.

-Farmers should avoid movements of farm equipment at sunrise and sunset as visibility is more limited during these times.
