I dont race but was reading some rules and it says " No Orange anywhere on the sled, If you have orange it must be covered or removed" What's up with this, I dont understand what Orange has to do with anything?

when a rider crashes on the course, this is how the officials differ from sled and rider, the rider MUST have 70% orange on them, this is so if a rider is seriously injured more immediate care is given, and in the situation of another rider havin the choice of hitting a sled or a person, they can hit the sled

That makes sense. Thanks for explaining that.
