ENCOUNTERING OBSTACLES ON THE TRAIL
If you cannot go around an obstacle such as a fall-
en tree trunk or a ditch, stop the vehicle where it is
safe to do so. Set the parking brake and get out to
inspect the area thoroughly. Look from both your
approach side and the exit side. If you believe you
can continue safely, decide the path that will allow
you to get over the obstacle at as close to a right
angle as possible to minimize vehicle tipping. Go
only fast enough to maintain your momentum but
still give yourself plenty of time to react to changes
in conditions. If there is any question about your
ability to maneuver safely over the obstacle, you
should turn around, if the ground is flat and you
have the room, or back up until you find a less dif-
ficult path.
WARNING
Before operating in a new area, check for ob-
stacles. Use extreme caution when operating
over large obstacles, such as large rocks or
fallen trees.
