PSA: Pay attention to your lane choice!

I've seen a few times already players approaching a corner using the outside lane when the corner has multiple dirt tokens on it, reducing the speeds to 0. This leaves the player with no legal dice placement, blocking their progress and continuation of the game as a whole. Remember that these dirt tokens do not affect the shortcut itself. Its speed will always remain unchanged and will always be a legal path through the corner. Please prevent yourself from becoming stuck in this way by paying attention to which lane you use when approaching dirty corners.

There is a bug report already filed to allow players to unblock themselves when this happens, but often it's caused simply by carelessness or inattention. Save yourselves and your opponents the frustration of abandoning a game that could easily continue otherwise!

Thanks for this relevant warning !
It was not the case with the first Rallyman because there was only one line, but this second line adds the need to anticipate even more, like a real pilot!

A racing game should not be designed such that a player becomes stuck with no further legal moves permitted.
