所有这些事件都发生在飓风之后的混乱里，当时通讯中断，精疲力竭的警察们的烦躁也可以理解。

All these incidents took place at a time of chaos, when communications were disrupted and officers were understandably frazzled.

直到20世纪70年代，进站仍然是无序、漫长，并时常发生混乱的，尤其是(在没有车队通讯交流的情况下)车手突然进行一次非计划进站的时候。

Pit stops tended to be disorganised, long and often chaotic as late as the 1970s - especially when (in the absence of car-to-pit communication) a driver came in to make an unscheduled stop.
