But Alan, then the thread would never get bumped
To follow up my vote, "The Rule is bad but could be fixed", I think that the intent of the rule is to
a) prevent re-scoring on the same line
b) prevent traffic flow in the opposite direction
As a driver, Positions 1 and 3 are bad ENOUGH (very terrible in fact; It literally can make or break your match), and then to get wrong-way penalties for trying to maneuver through pileups and traffic..... The intent of the rule isn't being considered. It's not like I'm driving in reverse around the track; I simply am trying to move through traffic, and if I happen to be over one of the cursed white lines, I'm screwed.
In my opinion, the rule should be written so that you cannot cross two consecutive lines in reverse order. This allows some freedom for the driver to maneuver through traffic, but doesn't allow him to go in reverse around the track to chase a ball. The disadvantage of course: it would be almost impossible to ref this.

Yes, I have already determined that the device is capable of launching 2,160 Krispy Kreme donuts into the back seat of my Mustang with a vertical displacement of 65 feet, without cracking the sugary glaze on a single donut. - dlavery [more]
