Thread: 36 trapped on the old bush road

A possible side issue is that these 4WD enthusiasts are quite likely to be the same who in different circumstances, would be called by Police to assist in another S&R operation.

Having said that, we should all learn that there are consequences for wrong, or ill-thought decisions.

That their own vehicles will be wintered up there is a personal consequence obviously....... But the fact remains that someone's S&R budget will have been dented. Frankly I'd be confident that any Police decision re allocation of costs was based on all the facts; not conjecture and opinion which so often fill our media, and forums like this.
