Hi Folks. I am not sure exactly how your laws work in Aussie but in NZ the OSH ( Occupational, Saftey and Health ) are starting to become a bit of a problem for some fo the land owners that let us use their land for 4x4 club runs as they are responsible for persons on their land, but with carefull wording of disclaimers they can but absolved from this.
Another problem is for trip leaders, as they in general are the front truck and say drive a hill and the second truck has an accident the leader is responsible as he has indicated it is OK by demonstration.
Thids type of thing is becoming a problem for club trips, and we are looking for alternative planning to put the responsibility on the individual for his own actions.
How do your clubs get around this problem.
