Your board may need a bit of shielding from above and from the sides (wouldn't want an errant tote or bin falling on this fine piece of work). I think that the main breaker is in a reasonably good location, it shouldn't be too hard to turn the robot off if it starts driving off as fast as it can possibly go ("I don't like your team anymore, and I'm moving to Team 254... and there's NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO STOP ME!" It's happened before.) If this happens again and again, I would recommend placing the robot in a cage. A Faraday cage would work fine for this.

All joking aside, excellent electrical board! Nice job. I hope you feel very proud.
