<G38> (NOTE) ROBOTS should be designed to withstand the expected contact outside the BUMPER ZONE. For example, ROBOT designs should anticipate the scenario of a ROBOT coming off a BUMP and landing on a ROBOT on the green carpet.

Thus someone at some point is expected to inadvertently and unexpectedly carry an opposing or alliance robot, should both robots actually survive that scenario.
