Standing on the side line free throw line extended does not allow a clear view of the lower block.

Both of these statements are reasons why the proper Fed mechanic for free throw lane-space violations is that the Lead has responsibility for BOTH lower blocks. The trail only has the shooter and the top three spaces on the opposite side.
So stand nearer to the free throw line and let your partner call his area.
