Default 13/13 rule..... Who has ever heard of "Working it off"?

Just curious if anyone here has ever heard of a driver on a 13/13 be able to "Work Off" a 13/13 by working flag stations, and attending Rookie schools? This 13/13 resulted in another driver getting severely hurt (neck injuries- hospitalized).
Personally, I think it is a joke.

Nope. In historic racing, if someone was found at fault where the other driver was hurt, they'd be gone... Forever.

Ha sort of like community service for a racing misdemeanor. Or if you hurt someone does it become a felony?

What is a 13/13? Is that when you drive beyond 10/10ths?

There's also the PCA "Rub-out" rule. As in, if someone hits you, and your car isn't "substantially" damaged, they declare it a "Rub-out," and everyone walks away. Great if you're the hitter. Sucks if you're the hit-ee.
