If you're saying driver on the proper side of the road is just at much at fault as the driver on the wrong side of the road, and, therefore, no tickets (penalties) should be given.... Well then I'll be sure to avoid Toronto. <S01> discusses robots creating unsafe situations. Not field elements. Teams are, presumably, planning on having their vision partially obstructed by the rack. Teams are not planning on having their sight completely and utterly blocked by another robot that can run around the field blocking vision anywhere it likes. The point is that field elements, etc, are a known quantity. Robots tossing in additional unsafe situations are an unknown and to be avoided.
