Assuming binary options of cautiousness (either you can be cautious or not) and only one being correct, 'being cautious is correct' is equivalent to NOT 'being cautious is incorrect'. Which is what I said.

It's not a binary option. It's a spectrum. You need to be cautious while driving, which is correct. You CAN be TOO cautious, which is in itself incorrect.
