A police patrol stops and inspects an A-tractor and establishes that the vehicle does not meet the requirements to be an A-tractor.

The vehicle lacked the mandatory partition between the front and rear seats, and one of the rear doors could be opened, meaning the vehicle could carry passengers. The vehicle was also going too fast and is therefore classified as a passenger car.

The driver, a boy around 15 years old, is suspected of driving without a licence, and the patrol has confiscated his tractor driving licence pending a decision from the Swedish Transport Agency.
