SOUTH EASTERN 4x4
GENERAL POLICY, CONDUCT & LIABILITY
|
this group is
NOT about the
business of
encouraging sexual
contact between members.
The purpose of the group is solely to connect
gay and bisexual men that want to go off road trekking together.
|
|
WE
HAVE A "NO SHOW YOU GO" RULE
All members must attend at least 2 meetings and/or trips during
every six month period otherwise they may be requested to leave
the Group.
|
The group provides a method for those of that own 4WD vehicles
to have other gay/bisexual 4WD owners about the place to call on if they need company on a
4x4 outing.
There is no intention to formalise the group into a club with various rules, official
trips/events and all the legal obligations that go with being a Club.
LIABILITY
This is NOT a club, it
is just a group of people sharing a common interest.
There is no insurance
and all members/guests are responsible for their own actions during all
events associated with this group.
As a consequence of
that, no liability or responsibility is expressed or implied by
the group to any members of the group.
You screw up, you are
on your own insurance wise.
In order to maintain some security, new members will be asked to provide
a telephone or mobile number so an existing member of the Group can
contact them to verify details, prior to being allowed into the group.
Abuse, threats, offensiveness within the group messaging area or whilst on trips will not
be tolerated and persons responsible for such activity will be sanctioned as the
moderators feel fit.
Trips are arranged on the basis of a member messaging the group
advising them that he is planning a trip for a certain weekend and anyone is
welcome to join.
As much detail of intended route including description of route difficulty
if known, should be supplied to other members; common sense demands some information.
If during the outing anyone dislikes the choice of route, camping
ground or bad driving or any other behavior they are free to make their own
arrangements/ decisions on what to do for the rest of the day including what route to take.
Participants will be responsible for their own vehicle safety, insurance, protection,
accommodation and food.
Although doing the right thing is encouraged there is no enforcement on
the part of the group body of any road rules or 4x4 etiquette whatsoever, and this includes environmental factors,
vehicle safety, driver education, local/ government or government agency regulations.
As there is a wide range of experience and opinions within the group, inexperienced
persons will be encouraged and guided in sensible vehicle handling.
Ultimately with the few exceptions above it will be the contacts who will decide for
themselves how they interact with each other and conduct trips. |
