Better do not drive over litter

I was today at Simley High School in Minnesota to see my and other teams showing off their robots. It was very interesting and there were a few teams that will definitely be able to stack many many totes.

However, it turned out that driving over litter is not always a good idea. I saw two teams who got stuck by driving over litter, at the end it turned out that the noodles suffered a lot by it. They were torn, one of them left a lot of real litter on the arena. I am not sure how such a case will be handled by the rules, but I would recommend to avoid them or having a mechanism to securely push them away. Maybe it will be counted as an attempt to damage the materials...

I attach a picture with one of the noodles
