I dont think so! theres many a well under 18yr old in Aus thats a better driver than many adults in cars and couriers vehicles. your government is purely insane, and trying its damndest to ruin any but massive agri business owned conglomerate mega farms of Mono cropped GM, muck.or CAFO torture camps for animals. I beg to differ with banning chemical fertiliser, they are enforcing the use of chemicals over manures and natural minerals, using the ecoli and salmonella incidents as a Spurious reason. the real issue is the massive processing areas, where far too many crops are combined and contaminated and shipped from One huge source. insanity. so when the crops need to be planted fast, or harvested before the rains ruin it, a farmer is going to log off for an approved 8hr nap?

Those regs are straight out of the DOT commercial trucking regs just like the Guide to Good Farming Practices is a rewrite of the FDA good Manufacturing practices for the drug industry. Time to start breeding and training draft horses, oxen and mules for use on family farms. Yes and do they also require a commercial drivers License TOO??
