Rule writing from safety perspective
Blog Submitted by racesafe on 01/21/2010 at 9:41 AM Report Blog

 Why do rule-writers for sanctioning bodies continue to use tough sounding but hard to enforce language?  Words like "strongly suggest"  and "strongly recommended" are no longer appropriate.  Everyone is concerned about being sued...heck, in our litigious society, being sued is way too common...and having said that, which side would you rather defend, rule language that is clear and more aggressive or language that is vague and less aggressive?  I think you know where I am going.  Even NASCAR, historically not the pinnacle of tough safety-related language, has adopted clear and aggressive language. 

Support your promoter, track, or sanctioning body when they adopt improved safety-related rule language.  There is a long list of things we should not have to be told to do as racers...utlilizing modern, SFI certified safety equipment is one of them!
