“…In the past, Swartzentruber and other conservative Amish groups who resisted using the SMV sign on the backs of their buggies while driving on public roads were pulled over by law enforcement, issued tickets, and sometimes sent to jail when they refused to pay their fines (Wagler, 1970). Eventually, as mandatory laws requiring the SMV sign on buggies, farm equipment, and other slow-moving vehicles came into force, conservative Amish either conformed to the new laws or agreed to use silver reflector tape as an alternative (Scott, 1981, p. 36).…”

Buggy safety long has been an issue in the state of Ohio and elsewhere. As their population grows, and rural roads become increasingly crowded with cars and trucks, safety will continue to be a concern to the Amish, public officials and the general public. In 2022, the governor of Ohio signed a mandatory lighting law for Amish buggies. Even though a large share of the Amish either already had a blinking light on the back of their buggies or conformed to the new law, some conservative groups, especially conservative Swartzentruber Amish groups, have resisted. This article discusses the history of attempts to increase buggy visibility and road safety and the developments behind the current controversy. It includes a brief statistical summary on the number of buggies in the Greater Holmes County settlement who either display a blinking amber light or do not, plus briefs visits to other Amish and buggy-driving Mennonite groups in Ohio. Also included are selected comments about the new Ohio law from readers on the Amish America website. The article concludes with a brief discussion of the possible outcomes from an issue that will likely extend into 2024 and beyond before a solution is found for all Amish affiliations.

“…In submerged fungal fermentations, mold mycelia can grow in either filamentous or pellet forms depending on physiological conditions, such as medium, aeration, and inoculum size (Whitaker and Long, 1973). The filamentous form is more difficult to aerate efficiently because of its higher viscosity.…”
