I agree. I use judgement for the safety of golf carts and bicycles. If the road is clear, I will often cross the double yellow line to provide more clearance in case the cart driver accidentially moves to the left. I consider this to be a responsible defensive driving maneuver.

Have you ever followed someone that will not pass a golf cart on the two lane roads in TV? (where there is a cart lane).
How about those who feel they have to swoop across lanes to make a turn? I assume all vehicles in TV will cross the double yellow line when passing a golf cart. I assume all golf carts will encroach into the driving lane from the cart lane. And I am right most of the time. And I am not so sure it is limited to the aged drivers only!! |

On the one hand the rules are the rules (laws) and it is illegal to cross the double line. PERIOD. On the other hand, if there is clear visibility and no other conditions is it such a bad thing to provide a little additional margin of safety.

Plea falling on deaf ears. You are going to cause an accident some day.

I have to cross the double lines to avoid the dog poop.

rationalizing that it is OK to cross the double yellow line is akin to being OK to exceed the speed limit as long as there is not a cop around.
I wonder why it is not an option to SLOW down and stay in one's lane until clear of the obstacle? As has already been stated....there is plenty of room. |

Seems a number of TV cart drivers are not gifted spatially and they drive very close to the white line.
If I come upon that type, I slow down as I pass them, but I stay in my lane! Also remind myself....what’s the rush! |

I assume you never speed and always come to a complete stop any stop signs when 30 miles from the nearest town in the country where you can see forever in both directions and no one else has driven on this road in the past 10 years.
