Recovery Information
Whilst the club takes all reasonable precautions, there may be times that recoveries are necessary:
- The trip Leader is responsible for making all decisions on recovery. The trip leader can delegate that responsibility to another member if the Trip leader considers it necessary
- If a recovery is necessary the Trip Leader will be in control of the recovery
- Members must comply with instruction from the Trip Leader. If instructions are not fully understood, they must be clarified before action is taken
- If a vehicle is damaged during recovery, it is the responsibility of the owner of the vehicle
- For their own safety, all Trip participants not actively involved in the recovery must be at a minimum distance of 1.5 times the longest rope, strap or cable
- Children must be supervised and kept well away from the recovery site
- If pets are allowed on a trip they must be restrained and kept well away from the recovery site
- The Club recommends that members have breakdown coverage. If the Club cannot effect a recovery, professional assistance may be required which would be at the vehicle owners expense.
