Typical hazards & measures
Service stations (unaccompanied)
— If allowing older participants to visit service stations unaccompanied, set clear guidelines for behavior, establish a meeting point, and conduct regular headcounts. Provide emergency contact details to older participants and set strict time limits.
Medical emergencies
— Ensure at least one adult per vehicle is trained in first aid and carries a well-stocked kit. Collect medical information on all participants and have emergency medications (e.g., EpiPens) readily available.
Unfamiliar vehicle features
— Provide training for drivers on all vehicle controls before departure. Conduct pre-trip checks to familiarize drivers with safety features such as emergency brakes, lights, and air conditioning controls.
Lack of contingency for late arrivals
— Develop a backup plan for late arrivals, including alternative transportation or a waiting area.
Vehicle breakdown
— Perform a thorough vehicle check before departure, including tire pressure, fluids, and lights. Equip the vehicle with emergency tools like a spare tire, first aid kit, and phone. Have a roadside assistance number ready.
