event that off-road driving cannot be avoided, please observe the

following precautions to help avoid the areas prohibited to vehi-

 Drive your vehicle only in areas where off-road vehicles are per-

mitted to travel.

 Respect private property. Get owner's permission before enter-

ing private property.

 Do not enter areas that are closed. Honor gates, barriers and

signs that restrict travel.

 Stay on established roads. When conditions are wet, driving

techniques should be changed or travel delayed to prevent dam-
