A small farming company has been fined after a six-year-old fell off a quad bike
25 May 2018
Greystone Holdings Limited was sentenced today in Wellington District Court following the incident in July 2016.
The boy was riding on the back of a quad bike when he fell and was run over by equipment being towed behind it.
A leg fracture required several surgeries.
WorkSafe spokesman Simon Humphries says whether you own a small holding or a high country station, kids do not belong on adult sized quad bikes.
The company has been fined 12-thousand-dollars.
