At low speed, in fairness. Speed is a major contributor to accidents and tractors are low speed vehicles. That would lower the percentage automatically. I am not arguing that point, I am just asking Mr. Moroney why contractor-owned tractors and other tractors should be exempt from an NCT when all other motorised vehicles have to comply with it, particularly given that tractor owners self-assess their tractors and there is no basis for monitoring that?
