Ok so who has a good memory?
Refererence overtaking on a solid white line
I am sure that the highway code used to say you could overtake a tractor doing less than 10mph. During a recent discussion it was pointed out the highway code says ,bicycles, horses,road maintainence vehicles,stationary vehicle,to turn right etc. Now maybe I`m just old but somewhere I have read and was taught about tractors and 10mph.
So if any of you have an in depth knowledge of the traffic laws when did this change ? According to my friendly traffic officer he could book a bike if it crossed the white line while overtaking a tractor even if it was doing below 10mph.
My memory is not that bad but I cannot find the answer.
Cheers Den
