With regard to item 1, it depends on how it was put there.
If it was put there after carrying it past the finish line, or
after scoring it past the finish line for 2 points, it would
not count as a hurdle. Some robots can put a ball on the
overpass reaching backwards without breaking the plane.

Keep this in mind when attempting to remove bonus balls. This comes from the definition of hurdle.
2. Bonus balls must not be supported by a robot from the same alliance. Balls that are supported by only the overpass and robots from that alliance are scored as +12 in accordance with G14.
