1. Bobsledding is a sporty challenge, even for passengers. Even with the utmost care of experienced drivers an incident cannot be ruled out. High speed and centrifugal forces require full health and an outstanding physical condition! Especially your spine and intervertebral discs will be heavily strained. If you have any concerns about your physical requirements you better renounce the ride. In this risky sport, you act at your own risk. In rare cases (1 out of 1000 rides) it can lead to serious injuries without any accident, vertebral body fracture for example.


2. For passengers safety equipment is obligatory, especially wearing a helmet. Check your helmet to fit perfectly. Tell your driver if anything would cause difficulties before departure.


3. The safety of the crew and your own safety depends on complying with certain behavioral rules, therefore be sure to follow the instructions of the driver.


4. The liability of the Bobsleigh and Sled Federation of Germany (BSD) as well as of organizers and drivers is excluded with the exception of intentional or grossly negligent cause of damage. The Bobsleigh and Sled Federation of Germany (BSD) stands for gross, negligent or intentional induction of physical damage according with statutory regulations.


5. A participation as a passenger in a race bob taxi is only possible from the age of 16 years, in summer from the age of 14 years, together with a valid personally signed ticket and a reserved time. For minors under the age of 18 a legal representative must sign. Cancellations or shifts of dates are possible. The exclusion of passengers is at the descretion of the organizer and responsible driver.


6. If a ride cannot be carried out by whichever reasons, the organizer reimburses the fare already paid less a 20% handling fee. An additional claim for compensation as for example costs for travel, accommodation and food is excluded.
