By charging drivers for the caution when they stop on the track to avoid a wreck officials are not following track procedures and making racing more dangerous for everyone.
track rule: "YELLOW FLAG: If at any time you stop on the track or cause a yellow, you will be sent
to the rear of the scored lap. Once you have caused two yellow or red flags, or any
combination of the two, in the same event, you will be black-flagged. If you leave the track
then return, you will be sent to the rear of the field. Any car penalized for rough driving will
be charged with a yellow. A yellow will not be thrown for any car safely sitting off the trackracing
surface. (inside the tires)
So, if a driver stops on the track to avoid smashing into a wreck, they are sent to the tail for stopping but are not charged with the caution b/c they did not "cause" the wreck.
Stop black-flagging or charging drivers with a caution for no reason and follow track procedures!
