Someone slides off one of your farm tracks, but wasn't permitted to be there: HSAW Act 2015 does not apply to the incident.

I fully understand farmer's reticence re permitting the public to cross their land, but it boils down to: A paper road is not their land. End of story.

I think you'll find when that goes to court you'll be had up for not maintaining said paper road to a standard you can drive a swift up it...unfortunately speaking from experience
