In most racing series, there is a safety car that is deployed if an accident occurs. This would be a good feature for online races, as I and many others have experienced multiple times where someone has rammed into your car causing yourself to spin, and be basically out of contention for the rest of the race. The safety car would allow everyone to get packed together again and for someone that has damage caused by someone else, they wouldn't have to worry about losing scores of seconds but instead would be in the back of the field only a few seconds behind. The safety car could be deployed in either 2 ways:
1. The game could detect if an accident occurred and automatically deploy the safety car
2. The drivers could press a button on their controller (say pressing down on the right joy stick), if 2/3rds of the drivers pressed the button within a 30 second time period, the safety car would be deployed.
The amount of time the safety car would be out would be random, the least being 2 laps and the maximum being 5 laps. Restarts would be performed either single file or double file.
