The Ten Commandments of The 4x4 Action Group
When using your 4x4:

1. NO DRINKING alcohol. Not by Drivers or their passengers. No discussion.

2. Convoy Rules: Always keep a safe following distance but keep the person in front & more importantly, the person behind, in sight.

3. Recoveries: One person will assume command of a recovery, recoveries to be done correctly, no tow-ball recoveries, people to stand clear etc. Safety 1st.

4. Recovery Equipment: Everyone should carry a complete Recovery kit. 4x4 Etiquette prescribes that you should use your own equipment if you require recovery.

5. Passengers: Vehicle drivers are responsible for the conduct of their passengers and guests.

6. Loose Items: Make sure all items (Cooler-boxes, bags, compressors etc.) are secure & can’t move, fall, or cause harm or damage in the event of tipping or rolling etc.

7. Tyre Pressures: Adjust pressures appropriate to the type of trail, conditions, tyre type & vehicle.

8. Safety: Safety first, wear your seatbelts, except when doing deep water crossings. It is advisable to keep your windows ¾ closed.
Remember: drive as slow as possible, yet as fast as necessary.

9. Event leader: Abide by the rules set down by the event leader, they are simple rules, not intended to restrict your fun, but rather provide a measure of safety for you and your family and others on the trail.

10. Code of Conduct: finally, always abide by the 4x4AG Code of Conduct:
