No, this rule is only in effect when you Signal to Pass (bumping another robot)

<G38> Signal To Pass – A ROBOT may indicate a desire to pass an IMPEDING ROBOT by
approaching the opponent ROBOT and “bumping” the back of the opponent ROBOT
(relative to the Direction of Traffic) .

<G41> Permitting To Pass - When a ROBOT has received a signal to pass (see Rule <G38>), or
when the REFEREE signals that a ROBOT is pinning an opponent in place, the ROBOT
shall have 6 seconds to move out of the way and create a “passing lane” to allow the
opposing ROBOT through. ROBOTS that fail to do so within 6 seconds after the “signal to
pass” shall receive a PENALTY. Repeated infractions will result in a YELLOW CARD being
issued to the ROBOT.
