Re: Legality of Downwards-Sloping Ramps

I haven't, I would assume because essentially everyone agrees they are not legal.
Specifically, no. However, this entire discussion came out of comments on a facebook video from a team working on a ramp sloping downwards. When the suggestion was given that is may be illegal, they stated "multiple lead inspectors passed it. one here in [state] before we left. and the one in St Louis did too." I'm still not sure if it was an offseason project or for that team's competition robot, but if inspectors WOULD pass them, it's believable that there could be a few.
