"Forcing" a yellow
As we know, it we have an incident before a flag point but out of sight of the preceeding point we can "force" a yellow by way of displaying a green (accompanied by whistling if appropriate).
Question to the masses though - how would you show the difference between the need of a waved yellow and a stationary flag? And then, when it's ok to withdraw their flag, how can you let them know (apart from withdrawing your green, which then causes the issue of cars seeing the yellow and not seeing a green....)? Is there an acknowledged technique, or is it just a case of trying what you can in the situation? |
