Craig,
If an inspector suspects a mechanism is unsafe he/she should ask to see it in action. If it is a danger to anyone standing nearby, then it is up to you to instruct the inspector that the demonstration should take place in a safe area. If your robot makes it onto the field and someone out there sees a problem they will contact the LRI to check and correct as needed. there are several rules that you need to double check before you decide to include such a mechanism. Team update 9 has some interesting language on "out of bounds".
