Echoing this, I worked field at Dallas and I saw a stop 20 seconds into an elimination match because their Lexan cover hit the breaker and physically turn it off, sad story but it happens. I've also see one that wasn't clicked all the way and turned off after the robot moved about 3 ft, it was out for basically all of teleop, again, sad story.
