Pardon my ignorance, but what are the boards for, growing seedlings?
I guess they could also be used for slinging under your wheels in sticky conditions when you've transferred the seedlings into pots . . .

Yes, they are for laying on the ground to assist you to drive over ditches or drive over rocky ground. Also known as bridging ladders.
Sand ladders are very different an are used to spread the load of a tyre over a large are to stop it from sinking (ie, sand)
