"Both sustained injuries significant enough that they required transfer by ambulance to hospital," said police.

"The tractor should not have been on the road and should not have been carrying passengers. This could have been a whole lot worse.

"The driver has been dealt with for quite a range of offences with a file being forwarded to the PPS for prosecution."
