rules like g22 are important to any FIRST game because they require a level of skill from the drivers. While I hate seeing matches determined by a penalty it is rulings like this that keep the game from being a "crash and bash" event. In most cases that I have seen this rule violated it would only take the driver a second or less to avoid the penalty.

I think Drivers should remember the following:
make sure you want to cross the line before you do it.
Make sure there is enough room in the next quadrant.
Do not turn immediately following crossing the line.

If you do the following things I think that you will never get the penalty.
