<G22> Direction of Traffic -- ROBOTS must proceed around the TRACK in a counter-clockwise direction. Once a ROBOT has CROSSED a LANE MARKER or FINISH LINE, it shall not break the plane of the line by moving in the clockwise direction. A PENALTY will be assigned for each infraction.
There are two ways this rule could be read.
1) The teams will be penalyzed for going in a clockwise direction at all. Even without breaking the plane.
~OR~
2) Once in a quadrant (A section of field defined by the border, a LINE MARKER, and a FINISH LINE) you can move freely within that quadrant regardless of direction as long as you don't break the plane of the quadrant you just lef.
Any thoughs for which one is right??
Im sure this is already posted somewhere but I can't seem to find it.
