Caution Flags in Overdrive

Winning is important. Learning is important. Inspiring students is important. Teaching Students is important. Figuring out how to do all of these at the same time, in my opinion, is the meaning of FIRST. - Justin Montois [more]

I would think this would only be used when the field is completely blocked. You must fear that some team may be harmed strategically if trying to perform a task such as hurdling when the caution stoppage occurred.

I'd guess the action would have to dwindle down pretty low pretty fast once the track had been blocked - most refs could then discern when it's ok to wave the yellow flag.
