If you're talking about the Loading Lane, which is behind your opponent's Alliance Station, any robot caught in that area has OTHER penalties to worry about!)

There is another area where you are not allowed to make contact with another robot: inside their Frame Perimeter. Oh, and if you're in their Launchpad in auto, you can't make contact with them either. But I think we can assume this isn't in auto.
