The problem wasnt as much the flags (well, it IS a HUGE problem...but...) as much as the one offender drove RIGHT BY around 10-15 STOPPED cars(including myself) and right BY the accident itself...a flagger had to literally run in front of a car to stop him. That was a serious problem. The other guy missed a series of flags, but IIRC wasnt near the incident (again, VERY bad but not as WOW as the other guy). Unfortunately, its hard to "practice" this as many tracks only want it to be real when it comes out...I know Tom said he even mentioned this BEFORE the incident as it seems that some need practice in a situation like this. Either way, thank god everyone was alright!
