I would have a serious problem with a white hat who picks up my flag for DPI or OPI. He usually will not even see it occur if he is doing his job. He is wrong and in as good of way as possible you need to discuss it with him so he sees that. This is not a judgement thing, the rule book backs up your arguement and not his. The only judgement is if you think he has made his break to start his route or not.
I am the white hat on our crew and I'd never pick up a flag like that unless we discussed it as a group and someone else said they saw it differently and the official who made the call changes his mind. If he doesn't change his mind, and it is not a rule issue, but a judgement issue, his judgement is his flag and we will discuss it later to see if maybe his judgement was wrong. Now if he threw a flag and by rule it was not a foul, we will pick it up.
Good luck!
