It was a Forestry Stages event. All stage rallies are run on closed
roads or private tracks, although they often use the public roads at
low speeds to get from one stage to the next. Deaths in motor sport
are very rare these days due to the wearing of crash helmets, extra
roll cages within the vehicles, full harness seat belts and fire-
proofing measures.

I know about the safety measures in rallying. It was unclear whether
the collision was on an open road or a closed road. A previously open
road was closed to retrieve the vehicle.
