I think it is possible to do just that. Initial contact is something
that can easily be assessed. Noone who gets caught up in an accident
should be assessed an incident point, only those involved in the initial
contact. Since there is no fair way to assess blame, you must give an
incident to both drivers. Penalties would only be assessed after the
3rd incident which means that everyone can race hard and rub fenders,
but once you've been in 2 accidents, you should start driving more
defensively. Besides normally, after two accidents you aren't in a
position to race for the win. There are certain drivers that will
always play chicken knowing that the other driver will always back
down. It even happens in real life. Of course, written complaints
submitted to Papyrus and NASCAR along with a replay could get those
drivers off the track. It will always be wise to drive only against
those you have respect for and those who have respect for you.
