Speed Bump

A Speed Bump is an additional task assigned as a penalty for the team that checks in last during a non-elimination leg.

Beginning in Season 12 teams who were saved from elimination during a non-elimination leg will have to perform a "Speed Bump" task sometime during the next leg. Teams would be alerted to the upcoming Speed Bump by a Route Marker clue prior to it; the Speed Bump itself is displayed in a manner similar to the Yield showing the affected team's picture at a stand near to the regular Route Marker. Once the team completes the Speed Bump task, the next clue they receive is the clue that they would have received at the Route Marker.
