Stay safe all of you 🙏😷 Very well said Doctor @Chaitanya D but unfortunately very few (5%) offroaders are not following the guidelines (probably unintentionally) and that's why we have to issue such warning with penalty here. 6 5 1 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.

Popular Post Kalahari Posted June 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2020 Only way is to stop warning and to start acting (i.e. banning). We still get people on drives without radios programmed - or even just one channel programmed - or not pitching up for drives and preventing somebody else to join! This despite the clear guidelines on the website. And I am not sure in how many different languages these warnings / guidelines can be issued. I think you have the support of the majority of the community to start the banning from this Friday - and also disclosed it to the community as a deterrent and sign of seriousness. Hopefully we can return to “normal” again soon ... 7 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Rahimdad Posted June 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2020 I would recommend that we are all responsible and should bring any such behaviour to the knowledge of the seniors on the drive. We can each take that responsibility as a community to guide and help each other understand these points. At times some seniors might be busy with a recovery and some people escape coming out to stretch or smoke and as a habit socialise without understanding the dangers. Everybody should take this as their responsibility to point anybody out who is not following these rules. Only with every bodies support can we achieve a 100% safe drive for all. the seniors are always there to take care of 99% of problems, but this one Covid19 restriction the whole community has to fight it together. Hoping for safer drives coming this Friday. 6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
