[u]How to Control a Runaway Camel[/u]

1) Hang on to the reins, but do not pull them back to stop the camel-Yanking the reins can tear the nose of the cvamel, or break the reins
2) If the camel has sturdy reins and a head halter, pull the reins to one side to make the camel run in a circle
3) Hold on untill the camel stops-Whether the camel is running in circles or not, it will not run very far./ Simply hang on untill the camel slows and sits down

3) Exit immediatly if the car stalls or begins to float.
4) Walk or run to saftey. If you are not trapped in the water, attempt to float.
