No. If it were, I'd push it in front of YOUR overpass and then get behind it so you can't move it. Now who gets in trouble?
I saw a case where a tipped robot was pushed in front of a ball corral (2004). A penalty was assessed. (The robot was intentionally tipped, but it took the second tip--so it couldn't get up--and the shoving into the chute to draw the penalty.)
