I don't want to spend the money to buy a lawn mower. What else can I use?

I remember seeing a gardener using a tool once to cut the grass in our backyard because he didn't want to deal with hauling the lawn mower back there. Maybe it was a weed wacker? What equipment do you recommend I use instead of dealing with a big lawn mower to cut grass?

Answer
How about one of those old fashioned push mowers. They use no gas, just your energy. They are lightweight, and work fine for a small yard. I got mine for about $85 at Home Depot last year. I use it for very small grassy areas in the yard. Good luck!

Is it legal for someone to drive a lawn mower on the road?

I was coming over some rail road tracks today and when I got over them there was a man riding his lawn mower in the road (with his kid on it). Now I'm not mad really or anything cause I live in the country and understand it more than most people do, but my goodness, have some sense. Especially having your kid on there?

I live in Kentucky if that's helps anyone with answering.

Another one quick question, if I had hit him, would it be his or my fault? Or would it have been a double or no fault situation. I'm not going to go to the police or anything, it's not that big a deal, just curious.

Answer
In the rural areas of Kentucky It's legal to drive farm machinery on public roads (no interstates) this includes lawn mowers provided they follow the rules of the road and have an Orange Triangle reflector on the rear of the vehicle or Flashing/Rotating Yellow Caution light.

Riders other than the driver/operator are prohibited unless the vehicle has appropriate seating...
