Tractor Seized By Police For Street Racing Against Motorcycles

Rather unusual stop for team 1 tonight. Tractor stopped after being reported for drag racing motorbikes!
Vehicle was seized as the driver couldn’t prove he was insured and was driving on red diesel.#driveinsured #2845 #1956 pic.twitter.com/QuFjFLcsnL

You don’t see this one every day. An English farmer took things to the street (literally). However, when police busted him for drag racing his New Holland T6.175 tractor against a group of motorcycles things went south.

Amesbury Police tweeted out a picture of the tractor with a giant sticker reading “Seized by Police” strategically placed on the side window. The department reportedly received multiple reports about the street race on a public road and showed up to shut it down. The motorcyclists escaped, however officers caught the farmer given his mode of transportation.
