  1. Amazing drive today, very good pace and very few refusals that made the drive really enjoyable! Kudos to @Anish Sfor his excellent lead that managed to keep a fairly fast pace in a very safe manner! Also thanks to @Ale Vallecchi his presence at the rear of the convoy was giving extra confidence to keep up the fast pace!

    Hope to see most of you next w/e!

    @stavros papachristos firstly thank you for taking the time to go through this thread and posting your valuable question. You are right in saying on many occasions we have pointed out that some of these vehicles were trying to pull a stunt in 2 WD when things went wrong. But mostly it's due to fighting gravity or being on the wrong line or even people ignoring safety instructions. Driving in 2 WD could be an honest mistake or could be done deliberately to drift in the sand. All these go against the safety protocols preached in Carnity and this thread to to make you aware about the dangers of not following instruction. Its always better to learn from others mistakes.

    @Rahimdad thanks for your feedback, indeed the majority of the accidents posted on this thread were mainly due to people tried to fight gravity or lack of attention and ignoring safety matters. i was trying to clarify whether the 2WD was intentionally chosen or if it was genuine human error (i.e people forgotten to switch to 4 wd) but your replies (that thank you all for your input) covered me! 

    have to say it is very interesting topic and in theory i learnt a lot, i will try to keep all these advises in mind when i am off roading!

  3. hi, i am fairly new on the club and i was going through the what went wrong section of this website and i have a question that will be great if someone could shed some light. I see on many accidents that the comments were that the car was driven on 2WD and not 4H so i was wondering why people drive on 2WD mode in the desert ? is there any specific reason/challenge or is just an omission ?

    thanks for your time
