Solo riders getting stuck and him having to rescue them was a problem before, thus the reasoning behind the solo rule.

I would guess the insurance rule is is also to keep the unsafe, drunk guy in a barn built out of exhuast pipe tube buggy out. Probably if you showe dup in a respectable looking 4x4 rig you could slide through.

Ive been on several rdes where tags and insurance was mandontory but I was never asked for proof.

As far as insurance coving stuff, if I run into your vehicle out in the woods with my trail rig, your vehicle is covered as long as there is an accident report. This is base don what State Farm told me. My agent knows exactly what I use my BroncoII for and said any mishaps out in the woods will be covered.

there is some more ifno on thier facebook page

I have talked to 3 different agents for 3 different companys start farm, progressice and all state and they all told me that if something happens out in the woods they would not cover it b/c it was not on a road and that is were ther coverage is good at.
that is the whole reason I do not have any insurace on my off road rigs now

I dont trailer very often anymore so I keep insurance for the purpose of street driving but I did look into what would happen if it rolled down a hill and smashed someone elses ride, as far as my agent is concerned if there is an accident report they will cover the other vehicle and passangers in it. Of course if they REALLY will or not, hopefully I never have to find out

Can't wait to check this place out.....I've seen the insurance rule in most parks and even hear clubs require it. Never have been asked to produce the proof though. I have always carried insurance,you never know... It's interesting to hear agents saying when you leave the road they won't cover you.

Agreed, if the rig is on the road, it needs insurance. If it is going to be trailered, then I don't see the need.

Also, food for thought, if it is liability that is a concern, an ATV can do some mean damage as well and is more likely to roll over or go out of control.

They're putting insurance restrictions on "full size" rigs to keep the extreme fringe wheelers out...they want a group of respectful , orderly off roaders with semi-built rigs.... that's where the money is.

I'd much rather flop down a hill in Carwash or Yellowjacket's "non-insured" tube rig than some street driven TJ with 35" mt's and a show bar.

I fail to see how they equate "insured" with "safe-to-wheel" as they don't have to go hand in hand and take a skilled eye to distinguish.

Thank you for articulating this in a non monetary fashion.

Well, I thought the insurance thing was pretty reasonable, but it looks like they're gonna be flexible on it anyway.

Talking

yeah asked the question to them about the insurance but he seems flexable on that due to most rigs are fab up tub rigs... and yes never wheel alone that is stupid... and if you break you better have a way to get it back out.. hence have your buddies tow you out..
