Ride-on lawnmowers 'injure thousands every year'

(1/4) > >>

Simon:
Using a ride-on mower to cut the grass might save energy but they land thousands of people in hospital every year, experts have warned.

Over five years some 66,000 Americans ended up in emergency departments with injuries caused by lawn tractors, reports the Journal of Safety Research.

Rik:
I knew there was a good reason to concrete over the lawn. :)-

Sandra:
Those silly people should have become British MPs, that way they could have had their lawns mowed, at our expense, without any danger of injuring themselves  :o:

Clive:
My lawn's not big enough for anything larger than a flymo.   :D

Simon:
What about the rest of the estate?  Have you still got that 96 year old gardener?  :)x
