In your situation, im not sure. I remember seeing that if a robot from a different alliance pushes your robot across the line your alliance will not be penalized. When you say "Crashing" I dont mean if they are intentionally pushing you over the line, or if there is accidental contact and the two robots become intangled. Clarify and Ill see if i can help more.

Edit: Here is the rule
<G23> Causing PENALTIES - A ROBOT’s action shall not cause an opposing ROBOT to break a
rule and thus incur penalties. Any rule violations committed by the affected ROBOT shall be
excused, and no penalties will be assigned. For example, an opposing ROBOT may not be
pushed into another ROBOT in an attempt to cause a IMPEDING situation and violation of
Rule <G40> by the opponent, nor may a TRACKBALL be placed intentionally on an
opposing ROBOT for the purpose of causing the opponent to violate Rule <G26>.
