We had a driveable par 4 on my league course and it was long enough that no one could fly the ball onto the green but a few big hitters could roll it onto the green with a big tee shot. Our rule of thumb was for those on the tee to wait to hit until those on the green pulled the flag stick. That insured that if a tee shot did find the green, it was rolling and very unlikely to hurt anyone.
"If you can fly it there, don't hit it there." Good words to live by.
