Insects walk
Giahuytls2326   0

Source: somewhere in the internet
A 100 × 100 chessboard is divided into unit squares. Each square has an arrow pointing up, down, left, or right. The board square is surrounded by a wall, except to the right of the top right corner square. An insect is placed in one of the squares.

Every second, the insect moves one unit in the direction of the arrow in its square. As the insect moves, the arrow of the square it just left rotates 90° clockwise.

If the specified movement cannot be performed, then the insect will not move for that second, but the arrow in the square it is standing on will still rotate. Is it possible that the insect never leaves the board?
