  2. Bravo @Benjamin! Great to see you not only developing your off-roading skills but also extending hands to help others. Also transferring the bug to your dad who we will hopefully see soon joining us. However as you already know by now recovering stuck cars specially with ropes involved comes with inherent risks and hence requires extra precautions and require both drivers to be alert and capable of communicating very clearly and work together as a team to avoid damage to the cars and more importantly bodily injuries. Unfortunately a lot of these solo weekend roamers lack the basics and sometime don’t understand these inherent risks and take things for granted when someone is extending help and will sometime even claim damages later on of their bumper is scratched during the process.. also due to their lack of attention they are not able to execute their role during the recovery properly.. there are lots of stories about this.. last one I heard last week from an owner of a brand new Raptor who went into the desert and got crested. A passing by car offered to tug him out and during the tug he pushed the gas too much so that the raptor ended on top of the poor guy who was helping him with the tug.. luckily no one was injured .. I am not saying don’t do it, I am just highlighting the risks associated with it and the need for extra care specially with those inexperienced drivers
