What goes around comes around.
Crossing the broken line is fine (if it's also safe obviously). Crossing a solid line is not, except as in item 129.Another example. Here we waited for a long time to pass and only after we turned off in another direction did we not follow behind them. What I’d like to know is that if I were to overtake on the opposite side of the road, all wheels beyond the white line is that compliant?
It's all in the highway code - have you got a copy?
It's here item 127 Lines and lane markings on the road (127 to 132)
Obviously could be unsafe to pass as there is no clear line of sight around the left hand bend being approached.I would not be the advisory distance away from them, but neither are on coming traffic. Here, the situation was four abreast, and cycling in such a way that with a van it wasn’t safe to try and hope the groups, they were spread out over a long distance, with insufficient ‘holes’ to leap frog them. Again, I don’t mind creating the longest tail back and I’m not raising any issues with how they are cycling, just how to safely and correct pass them.
