It's a simple mechanic that can avoid any confusion, so why not put it in your game.
The mechanic tells you where the spot is and whether it's a designated spot. It doesn't give anybody license to commit a subsequent violation. You're choosing to completely ignore NFHS rule 9-2-1.

Do what you want to do, Joe. You obviously don't believe any of us. For others reading this who might not be sure, you would be wise to check with your local rules interpreter before doing what Joe is recommending.
