Re: Banging the driver station

Accidents happen and in certain cases I think it's certainly fair to be lenient.

This year especially, it's pretty easy to determine whether it was an accident or whether it was just lazy coding to get the breach. "Drive full speed till you hit the wall" is a legitimate, but lazy, auto strategy.

if it were up to me, the first one would be a stern warning (this would cover accidents), second time would be yellow card, third time would be a red card.

In addition to the sensor integration ideas mentioned already, even just ramping the throttle would help. if you're down to a gentle tap by the time you hit the castle wall, you're fine.
