Travelling to Kunurra West Australia


We were travelling and arrived at Kunurra late afternoon.  As we normally free stay we found a park just out of town where another caravan had pulled up before us.  After having tea and showering to our surprise about 9.30pm we had a knock on our caravan door.  It was, although no identification was forthwith, a ranger saying we had to leave the park and be 25 klms out of town.  If we did not move by midnight we would be booked $200.  We were flabbergasted.  What if we had been drinking and took off and had an accident, would we be able to come back on them and say they had a duty of care to ensure we were safe?  We decided to move on and never to return.  Kunurra were the loosers as we planned to stay there a week and spend up big.  doh

Welcome to the gang HOBBY, enjoy here and out in the playground.

I have a document that you get the Ranger or similar to sign saying he/she is responsible for you being in a accident or similar due to being sent off. I have been told the document works as they won't sign it and you stay the night. I have never had to use it yet and hope I don't.

Thank you Doug. We will certainly make up a document for the future. It is certainly a great idea and one that I will let our friends know of also. We cannot believe that they would treat visitors like that.
