- The increasing number of accidents with A-tractors worries us, says traffic police Johan Alm.
Last year, there were about 20 accidents with A-tractors in Dalarna alone and according to Johan Alm, many A-tractors are manipulated and driven faster than the 30 kilometers per hour they are allowed to walk.
Speeds of 130 km / h
According to the police, speeds of both 120 and 130 kilometers have been registered and so fast you are not even allowed to drive anywhere in Dalarna.
- These drivers are young, have neither the habit nor the training to drive so fast, says Johan Alm.
Sharp increase in accidents
Since 2016, there have been a total of 62 accidents with A-tractors in Dalarna and from that year the number of accidents almost tripled by 2020.
