of 120° turns in the line, it will be more difficult to keep the robot's light
sensor over the line edge as well, perhaps needing even slower speeds. Try more
gently turning lines, and/or thicker lines (so that the robot is less likely to
"cross" completely over the line to the "wrong" side).

Assuming you're using a single light sensor, and a differential drive robot (tank drive), the simplest approach is to use "edge-following". This means if (...)
