Just thought i'de get my legal question in also.I got booked for this offence a couple of years ago(and wore it):"> What is the ruling on overtaking on double lines?I was travelling up a hill,behind a car,when the car moved over enough to the left for me to overtake him,(without speeding)and without crossing the double lines.Anyway at the top of the hill was a cop who saw the incident and booked me for overtaking on the double lines.I argued that i did not go over the lines and he said it doesn't matter,you over took on double lines and thats breaking the law.What gives,IS THIS CORRECT?
