Sad that you make assumptions without any information to back up your claim.

You state: "...limiting access to some of the more dangerous areas, such as "Competition Hill"..."

Competition Hill is not a dangerous area, if it were it would show a higher level of accidents or deaths...but it does not.

Drawing a correlation or conclusion on limited information is sad. Should we assume that all lawyers are liars and child molestors since lawyers have committed these crimes in the past. I say no... but your rush to judgement shows that you think this is acceptable.

If you study the accidents within the state you will see that the Oceano Dunes is one of the safest places to enjoy OHV activity. Any death or injury should not be taken lightly, but we must all realize that death and injury occurs in every activity and precautions must be taken.

Who knows...maybe there are circumstances to this accident which have not been released.

You call the numbers "alarming" yet you ignore all of the deaths and injuries county-wide on highways, hiking trails and elsewhere. Yes, several hikers have fallen from cliffs lately--at least one killed. Should we ban hiking? Why not? Contrast it, please. Competition Hill is a very mild hill as far as dunes go--all of Oceano Dunes is mild. There are much much larger dunes in California. Without any specific knowledge or riding experience you equate one incident to categorically prove a fact. Bet you'd never let your legal opponent pull that maneuver unchallenged. You're obviously in a position to seek work and money off these incidents. But, I bet you'd fly either direction depending on which side hired you.
