Now during auto we aren't supposed to cross that plane and especially touch controllers.

I didn't catch if a foul was called, and the match was restarted anyways, but what do you guys think about the foul if it did happen? We put the controller in a different place after that, so is it one of those as long as a ref doesn't see it happening constantly?
They specifically do allow you to touch the operator console for safety purposes (e.g. to rescue it).
