iii. do not connect or attach to another ALLIANCE member
iv. do not communicate with anything or anyone outside of the ARENA.
v. do not include any form of enabled wireless electronic communication (e.g. radios,
walkie-talkies, cell phones, Bluetooth communications, Wi-Fi, etc.)
vi. do not in any way affect the outcome of a MATCH, other than by allowing PLAYERS
to plan or track strategy for the purposes of communication of that strategy to other
ALLIANCE members.
Items B, C, E and F also apply to the DRIVE TEAM Member in the SPY BOX.

From my week 0 experience, the drawbridge is a terrible hindrance to the drivers' line of sight. But it's almost short enough to see over. If I were six feet tall, the view would be quite better.

Would it be illegal to bring a stepstool or platform for drivers to stand on during a match? I don't seem to recall any rules prohibiting that, but if legal, it may be useful under certain circumstances.

T26-1 clearly allows for the use of a step stool...

D. TEAM STANDARDS and devices, if needed, to assist placement in the Standard Holder

E. special clothing and/or equipment required due to a disability

D. Allows you to bring a step stool to place your standard and does not require you to remove it from the driver station

E. Allows you to bring a step stool provided the ref's agree that being short is a direct hindrance on your ability to play the game

Also I noticed someone has already submitted it to the Q/A so we will know for sure soon.

I think you can consider this a "signaling device" or an assist to a vertical height disability.

If passive assistive devices are allowed, we are totally bringing these:
