just a reminder of DOs and DONTs while driving in national park/wildlife sanctuary, especially since a large no. of cars will be going on this trip.

1. grouping before entering the national park and regrouping only after exiting the national park.

2. no stopping / parking inside the national park for waiting/driking water/snacking/peeing /smoking etc.

3. no loud music,no honking.

4. if you spot an animal , slow down if you wanna take pics, do not stop and do not switch off engine.

5. animals have right of way.

6. cars with free flows exhausts , keep your revs as low as possible.

7. dont drive in a large convoy. convoy of 2-3 cars max.

8. if no. of cars are more , allow gap of 1-2 minutes between cars.

@Siddartha :
Thank You for the valuable insights.
As you are also from Bangalore , why dont you join us for the trip?

@ All those who have signed up : Please state what cars will you be coming in and where you are loacted in and around bangalore. That will surely help in narrowing down on the meeting point and identification. I know its a bit too early, but there are lot of things to plan. I am also looking for accomodation for the overnight stay at Nagarhole. So people please let us know fast..

Still I will count you as when booking is done, we can freeup rooms if not required, but might not get extra rooms on the D-day if no of participants are high
