There have been a few accidents in recent years in rallying where members of the public and photographers were involved.
I recently attended the Neil Howard rally at Oulton Park.
As a race photographer I am aware of certain rules and always making sure you have an escape route. I saw this photographer though doing a few things I thought were very dangerous in so far as his proximity to the line of fire and his kneeling down. Later he actually sat down and was then asked to move by one of the marshalls.
Is the attitude in rallying not as safety conscious as racing?
