I bought a recovery strap from Repco in Adelaide a couple of weeks back and it had no such warning or signage... Guess the Govt need to monitor that the compliances are being followed..

Only people directly involved to be in either vehicle
DO NOT CONNECT THE STRAP TO A TOWBALL

Unfortunately you cannot advertise or legislate against negligence or stupidity
