I'm with Gary on this one. If Blueabot moves into that path, it's impeding, -10 points for Blueabot. If Redabot has other paths and doesn't take them and slams into Blueabot, that's high-speed ramming, -10 points for Redabot.

Redabot IS protected while hurdling, yes. However, Blueabot has simply made it more difficult for Redabot to hurdle and doesn't even have to touch Redabot. So, if Redabot contacts Blueabot deliberately (to try to get the penalty to Blueabot), no penalty, unless it's on Redabot for ramming.
