"So Went by the local police station today. Saw 2 jeeps sitting in the impound lot covered in mud. I asked the officer I was having lunch with why they were there and if I could steal the lift (joking of course). He told me they were impounded cause they were trespassing and destroying private property and are goin to auction on the 14th....." Forwarded from a friend
Illegal wheeling is no joke people. Gives our sport a bad name, and negates all the efforts put out by those who work hard to preserve our sport and keep legal place open to wheel. If you aren't at a designated off road park, and don't have expressed written permission by the land owner, 9 chances out of 10, you're illegal wheeling. "That place down by the creek behind the old bowling alley" is not an acceptable place to go get muddy. Even if "there are other people down there all the time".
Moral of the story, if you do sneak around and wheel in shady areas, hopefully it catches up to you and you break something, get stranded, get arrested and possibly lose your jeep. Because you don't deserve it
Do our sport a favor and pass this message on in one way or another. We've all been young and dumb, but most of us have grown up and realized the possible consequences.
