I left the robot for one minute with our programming mentor while I went and looked at something else, and he managed to hit the overpass at full speed with our forklift. Luckily, it didn't break it. The robot instead drove until it tipped partly on its back side and the wheels were no longer in contact with the floor. We have a good CoG.
