[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 563086, member: 4485"] Yes has to be a registered vehicle/bike & licensed driver/rider on established tracks that are open. It's not clear whether he was riding a motorbike or not though as one newspaper report I read said they were mountain biking? It still doesn't excuse his decision to enter an abandoned mine tunnel though regardless. He made that decision & should wear the consequences as above. Finding then sign posting/barricading or sealing all the old mine tunnels & shafts in Australia just isn't practical. There's only one solution that will appeal to bureaucrats & bean counters if he wins - shut these areas to the public. [/QUOTE]
