Otherwise, move the pressure pads back a few feet away from the field. To all other human players, just keep your eyes open, and remember that your safety is more important than staying on the pressure pad.

WEll the fields are brand new this year, from my understand from what Bob Hammond told me ( FIRST director at UCF regional) that the fields are made by a third party and to change the fields would require money and time. So nothing can be done this year but maybe in the future. Just everyone has to pay attention and stay safe. KNowing from standing on the side of the field were the auto loaders were, we almost got hit a few times. so even volunteers and refs and people on the field please always keep your eyes on the field at all times
