>In most EU countries, children of farmers can drive 10 ton death machines with pointy spikes on the front from the age of 14 to 16

Are you sure that's legal? If those kids kill someone with those farm death machines, who goes to jail for it? The kid or the pearant who gave him the equipment? Will your insurance cover this?

Yes, since it's legal

Yes, it's 100% legal in multiple EU countries.
