Re: trailer hitch and bumpers

I think that the trailer's tongue will touch the bumper first if they're butting. That's a no-no.

Inspectors will almost certainly be attaching a trailer to your robot and swinging it side-to-side to ensure bumper-to-bumper contact (although if the magic answer is, for example, that a 3" gap from the hitch to the nearest bumper is required, we might just use a tape measure instead).
