I totally agree with this I have had this happen where we were the pushing robot and I didn't realize how high the cg was on the other robot and they fell over. My contact would not have caused it if it was just bumping with a lower cg robot. The drivers should not be held responsible in occasions like these because they don't know how high the cg is on the other robot.
