SKEGNESS CARNIVAL COMMITTEE

IMPORTANT LEGAL NOTICE

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

It is customary for entrants in Carnivals to make use of decorated motor vehicles, often carrying passengers. Usually this use of such vehicles infringes many of the Road Traffic Acts. However, the Police exercise discretion, although they have no obligation to do so.

Any discretion shown extends ONLY to the parade, not the beginning until we move off along the official route and ceasing when the parade reaches Sea View Road. You must note that at this point, all Road Traffic Act Rules resume in full. There will be no exceptions. If you continue to carry passengers after this point, you do so entirely at your own risk.

Passengers are only allowed to board floats at the parade starting point. The setting down point is Sea View Road. The children on the floats are to be collected by parents at Sea View Road. Do not obstruct the road whilst unloading floats and ensure that all passengers disembark on the pavement side of the vehicle.

All Carnival vehicles must be taxed, MOT tested and insured according to the law.
Drivers of Carnival vehicles must be qualified and insured to drive the said vehicle.
No vehicle may run on Trade Plates.
Carnival participants must ensure that they pay full regard to instructions or advice given by the course marshals and follow these instructions in a manner that will not inconvenience or endanger other people at any time.
Advertising material may be distributed, provided there is no risk to spectators.

Keep the parade moving at all times. Static displays along the route are not allowed.

THE USE OF WATER PISTOLS AND PELLET GUNS IS STRICTLY BANNED.

Skegness Carnival Committee holds the Street Collection Licence for the Parade Day. This means that no other organisation can make a Street Collection on the day. Only registered collectors, using our official containers may collect money from spectators. All collection buckets must be handed in to the Carnival Van at the end of the parade to a Carnival Official.

Please ensure that ALL members of your team are aware of and follow these rules.

WITH SAFETY IN MIND AT ALL TIMES, HAVE FUN AND ENJOY THE DAY!!
