Evilpumpkin,
You are right in the fact that I used the wrong word - poor - in the thread title. No offence taken from your reply - I cant see anything that should cause offence, anyway. What I was trying to get at, as you put so well, is the times where you can safely move a vehicle with the personnel you have, but the team are either not ready, or not willing to because of the snatch vehicle.
I know all to well that every incident can be different (I am ops manager for the UK's leading outdoor kart circuit, so see incidents every day of the week)but think that sometimes a back to basics approach can focus everybodies mind.
Of course you never put your team at risk, and risk assesment can be a personal thing, but we are all there to do a job, and I have in the past been prevented from doing that job as the I/O or Race Control order you back.
I hope people take this from the general point of view it was meant.
Andrew
