    The paper studies the tameness of a geometric behavior of trajectories of vector fields: the rotation of such a trajectory around a point or the mutual rotation of two trajectories. It is shown that the rotation in time \(T\) of a trajectory of a \(K\)-Lipschitz vector field in \(\mathbb R^n\) around a given point (stationary or non-stationary) is bounded by \(A+BKT\) with \(A\), \(B\) absolute constants. In particular, trajectories of a Lipschitz vector field in finite time cannot have an infinite rotation around a given point (while trajectories of a \(C^{\infty}\) vector field may have an infinite rotation around a straight line in finite time). The bound above extends to the mutual rotation of two trajectories (for the time intervals \(T\) and \(T'\), respectively) of a \(K\)-Lipschitz vector field in \(\mathbb R^3\): this rotation is bounded from above by the quantity \(CK\min (T,T')+DK^2TT'\) with \(C\), \(D\) absolute constants. One direct consequence of the existence of the bounds is an explicit upper bound for the so-called asymptotic Hopf invariant. Another consequence is a logarithmic bound for the asymptotic local rotation at singular points of analytic vector fields.
