What NOT TO DO
« Reply #30 on: October 24, 2007, 10:54:03 PM »
two things to say 4wheelers do not help 4wheelers as much any more I am not sure why but they don't. I do allot more recovery's because of this. The other  thing is if you charge someone to help them you are taking on the liability and if something goes wrong you can be held responsable for any damages or injury.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but we all take on that responsibility regardless of charging or not, correct?

Not really it is allot easier for you to be held responsible if you charge for a service. If not you are just helping.

So different rules for off-road as opposed to on-road?

Maybe. This is what I have been told by my lawyer and it is the same reason I have such a detailed waiver. Waiver helps with insurance but it may not stop me from being sued.

My un-educated guess is the same rules apply, on and off road, if you ask for money you are not really being a "good samaritan" you are working for a fee, and therefore risk being liable for damages.
So maybe the best way is just to help out, or not.

Maybe a person could ask for a "donation" :wink:  after a succesful extraction.

Its the first time ive delt with strangers in need. wasted 2hrs of my time..

Its common sense not to go out in the muddy bush by yourself.. no matter what your doing..


If u take that risk by yourself.. get out of it yourself. call your friends whatever.  Dont bother the people who come prepared..

None of this "i didnt know better"  Its still common sense..

"Common sense" is, contrary to popular belief, actually "common".  Unfortunately, it's just not GOOD sense. :lol:

If I wasn't willing to take the opportunity to educate someone who sorely needs it by helping them out and talking some sense into them, giving some direction, letting them know where to go for information on wheeling and experienced wheelers to wheel with......



I wouldn't complain about trail closures.



Just my opinion. :)
