If you didn't have motor controllers, or (illegally) put both motors on the same controller, this would certainly be the case. Are motor controllers designed to handle the reverse bias? - Oh, right. If you decide to change from 100% speed to 50% speed in a short period of time, you'll create the same situation, so they have to be designed that way. Never mind.
