Interesting, is that the OS app?
As for lane names and being able to search/ filter things like ford's this would be a feature that would be flagged by the initial person mapping the route within the new app and then confirmed by subsequent users, much the same as when people flag up a mobile speed camera on google maps!

And insurance.

That’s why a lot of the farm land we used to race on stopped. Insurance companies would not allow any motorsport on stubble fields.

I know of 1 off road centre who had a bad accident with how I people drive
And 1 patch of land where there were 2 severe accidents on following weekends & caused a death of the experianced rally driver with his injuries caused by the roll.

I guess I was thinking of keeping it quite raw and people enter at own risk etc, not make it an official thing, but you're right, there's probably a heII of a lot of paperwork if something goes wrong.

I reckon if it was only owners using it then insurance would be fine, as soon as you start charging people it gets super complicated.
Also a lot of land has usage restrictions for certain activities and driving would be one of them as I think it would be viewed the same as a race track.

Interesting, so as long as everyone that wants to use it makes some kind of donation however small and became a joint owner, then it makes it simpler on the legal side? I suppose it's just owners checking on their property then, right?

I imagine you would need one busybody then trouble will come you're way.
Besides I very much doubt you will find enough interest to stump up £80k.
