Striking: closed-fist punches prohibited (no MMA-style strikes); some events permit "palm strikes" only — verify per-event rule; Intentional damage to vehicle interior beyond reasonable competition: warning → point deduction; Eye-poke / throat strikes / head-butts: DQ
Why people argue about this
People often assume that eye-pokes and throat strikes are just part of the rough-and-tumble nature of CarJitsu, so they argue that these penalties should be more lenient or even overlooked. Actually, what Yawar sees as crucial is maintaining a level of respect for the participants' bodies, hence why Section 7 makes clear-cut eye-pokes and throat strikes are instant game-killers with a DQ.
