Did FLL stop and see if the person was ok? Offer any aid?


I guess the FLL feels they deserved it after all they are a crazy fool AND from Mass too!?
Workers at SCCA race courses are expected to run to roll-overs carrying a fire extinguisher and a knife. Earlier, drivers and workers had all signed "hold-harmless" agreements to protect us from lawsuits. The knife was to cut the six (!) seatbelts holding the driver. We were cautioned to support the driver, as they would otherwise fall on their heads!

With trained "First-Responders" promptly on their way, it'd be better to keep one's car and body away from the speedsters approaching the scene in slushy conditions.

Plus, there's probably someone video-taping the "crash" to benefit Morgan & Morgan, Esq.

The days of The Good Samaritan have ended...
