This may have been hashed over and over but I am curious as to your opinion on the use of seat belts on your tractor. Most tractors have ROP and seat belts installed. Personally I use mine unless I have to do a lot of getting off and on like opening gates and adjusting equipment. We had a neighbor killed a couple years ago and got me started thinking of using it.
 
Occasioanlly on the open tractor if I'm in a poor stability situation. Otherwise I never use them. But I don;t use the in the trucks either
 
Depends on what I have attached on the back, and how much I think it would hurt to be under it. A disc and a shredder is a no-brainer.

Actually, I use it almost all the time, except for when there's a lot of getting off and on.
 
My old Ford doesn't have a seat belt and i was glad of that when recently I tipped her and I got thrown clear but my wife says that even if the tractor had a belt i wouldnt be wearing it.
