Is it normal for an entire convoy to be flagged if an accident occurs?

I was in a Convey where one of the trucks had rear-ended a Waterbaffalo due to low visibility. Our Command Flagged the Entire Convey. Is this a normal Occurance when Flagging Soldiers?

If there is an investigation, everyone under investigation is flagged for the duration of the investigation

If everyone was in violation of the proper stand off/safe distance during the low visibility. Plus, folks are usually flagged when an official investigation happens.

SGT (Join to see) - Regardless, if an accident happened during a convoy, an investigation needs to happen. To figure out why it happened. I can only speculate why your Commander flagged everyone. I'm guessing there is a reason. And, I'm guessing Legal was probably sought out to see if the Flagging actions were legal. Again, all guesses on my part. The ONLY one that can clear this up/give a clearer answer is your Commander and/or 1SG.

MSG (Join to see) sorry, SFC, I was just worried. I was questioned to many times on our Commands decisions. It just scared me a little that something was wrong.
