If you accidentally touched the lane line during a race, does that disqualify you? ies"]
If not, how can you tell "accidentally" touching from touching more, e.g. pushing the lane line? It helps to push the lane line, doesn't it?
Once during my lap my hand and the hand of another swimmer in opposite direction accidentally pushed each other, giving both of us a solid propulsion :D

Touching the lane line, even pushing off sideways, should not DQ.
102.15.9 Grasping the lane line or side wall to assist forward motion is not permitted.
kind of like....intentional vs accidental
