I had my share of near misses when I was drag racing in the '70s and '80s, but back then we didn't have to deal with the current number of tow cars, tow trucks, tow vans, off-road quads, off-road side-by-sides, golf carts, mopeds, go-peds, motor scooters, off-road pit motorcycles, bicycles, electric bicycles, skateboards, hover boards, roller skates, Razor-type scooters, electric-powered Razor-type scooters, inline skates, Heelys, and so on.

In my opinion, children have no business being on ANYTHING with wheels in the pits. We don't allow that in motorcycle road racing, except for racers in full safety gear, on race bikes, heading directly from their pits to the track entrance and back, at not more than the pit speed limit.
