confirming with Clive
Hello Clive
Yes this is the event, which private MV owners were asked to assist DND by taking our vehicles as part of a display.
The individual vehicle owners were required to have liabilty insurance etc. (on top of regular auto insurance). Plus waivers needed to be signed. This did not make sense since we were invited to attend.
It makes sense to have that sort of insurance and waiver at a DND location if we were renting the facility for our own event. DND are not alone in asking this as many other property/ hall rental locations ask this.
It would also make sense if we were attending the DND event on behalf of a museum or club.
For example the Club or Museums insurance would cover members if they attended on behalf of the club/museum at an approved event, but it would not cover non members.
In any event this was not the case and spending money for extra insurance to attend an event we were asked to assist with just did not make sense.
The waiver was a little extreme, i beleive it would have held the individual vehicle owner liable if somebody happened to hurt themself while looking at the vehicle.
As Robin states there already is a worthwhile event, which MV owners are invited to attend, and it has special event insurance coverage.
Thanks
Eric
