Motors spinning while robot is disabled

Our robot's wheels would randomly spin while the robot was on, but disabled. It obviously makes working with the robot significantly more dangerous. We would like to prevent this problem in the future. Any ideas on what caused this?

Additional details:
We were using Victor SP's attached to CIM motors. We tried to re-calibrate the speed controllers, but sometimes the calibration wouldn't take, while other times it would. We put our robot on a dolly and most of the time the wheel spinning could be activated by a slightly hard tap on the frame. Thanks.
