An intent of this rule is to prevent unsafe situations where long tethers to Operator Console devices increase tripping hazards as the operator moves about the Alliance Area. In the interest of avoiding nuisance penalties associated with a DRIVE TEAM member stepping outside of a prescribed area, we prefer to offer a general guideline as to what it means to use the Operator Console in the Alliance Area. Provided the Drive Team member is within close proximity of their Driver Station, there will be no repercussions. However, a Drive Team member located more than approximately half a Driver Station width away from their own Driver Station while using their operator console is likely violating this rule.
