Title: Causes, costs and remedies for major accidents    
     
     
     
     
 
    
 
     
     
     
     
 

 

Most severe accidents are caused by:
1.   Poor visibility
2.   Late caution flags
3.   Over aggressiveness,
4.   Inexperience
5.   Stupidity - when the caution comes out, get out of the throttle

Unlike Nascar, most car owners cannot afford a new car for each race.   Trashing cars is not racing even though Daytona and Taledega fans may disagree.   

There is nothing worse from the racer or fans perspective than a 'race' which is mothing more than one caution after another.   

Tracks should keep track of caution causers and after so many 'charges' the racer should be parked for a race (or more).   

Note to drivers: It's not about you, it's the car.   
If the car can't do it, neither can you.
