adam you need a train horn. it moves people and makes you feel better

Girls, Pizza, Summer in Idaho, Retirement....You name it and I have an opinion. LMAO Just tried Bourbon and Ginger Ale, not bad! Oh one more thing. If BLM would get a qualified grader operator the road would be 5-10 feet wider! :-)

I'm with VegasStyle Train horns seem to clear the way lol

All the signs/videos in the world cannot put an end to this. Bottom line is it starts/ends with the driver. Common sense and not riding beyond you and your equipment's abilities goes a long way. This type of accident could have been avoided but it will continue to happen many more times. Sounds to me like two guys were out having fun and got distracted while doing so and the driver misjudged the speed/dunes. Sucks he had to pay the ultimate price.

This run is an international event, It is possible that a lot of these people we not informed about where that road goes to and they need to keep it open and accessible at all times. I bet it was frustrating since you had bike troubles but try to keep in mind these are LEO people and running a race and they were focused on the race more than parking/staging a vehicle. I am on both sides here as I too am LEO but I can respect your frustration with the road being blocked. At least it only happens one day a year. Next year it might be me blocking your road as I plan on being in it...lol

We were out there all weekend and came up on the wreck shortly after it happened. Its a damn shame that a life has to be lost over ignorance. I'm a firm believer in learning new things in life but PLEASE learn from experienced people. From what I saw of the aftermath was pretty nasty. EVERYONE ...if you have a stock cage do yourself and your family and friends and get am aftermarket cage. These stock cages are garbage!!!!! it was a very Erie Feeling afterwards .....dunes were quiet for quite awhile.

That report isn't accurate on the location, on your camp grid map it would be where the grid number 3 is. Also, the people on scene who removed the victims from the vehicle confused the driver and passenger in the heat of the moment, so it was actually passenger that was airlifted and driver who passed. It was upside down pointing up the hill and they removed the person on the left side looking from the rear 1st, so that was passenger side and he was alive, they had to flip it onto its tires to get the other occupant out cause his head was stuck under the cage and that put him on the left of the vehicle once it was up righted, which makes that the drivers side and he was dead on scene. That is how both people ended up on the ground on the same side of the vehicle next to each other. Also, seeing the drivers side cage impact and the head injury he sustained it was obvious he was driver. One of the family/friends kept pointing at the deceased guy and saying "driver", but due to her limited English nobody paid attention to her. Talked to the group at the north pole later that evening and they realized they reported driver/passenger wrong and said they would try to contact the agencies to get it corrected in case of legal action from the family of the guy who passed thinking it was the driver who survived and caused the death.

I already sent them(the company website) a nasty email

I never mentioned signs would work. I think that was White Rhino's idea. It would be great if it was that easy, but in the end people will end up doing stupid things on their own regardless of what you tell them. I guess there really isn't a solution. People just need to be a little more cautious out there, especially when they are new, The driver made a terrible mistake in judgement and paid dearly for it.
