That boy sure takes a lot of pix!
I found a good photo sequence in there but can't figure out how to link them.

I just had to research this Chicken Tax, and my Lord! How is this 25% tariff on small trucks still in existence? And, no wonder we do not have any of the cool small trucks here in America! I had no idea this tariff was around (and its funny that 3 of the 4 products have since been removed, so only small trucks are tariffed now).

That's probably blood.

It's true, if you hit this road in attack mode, you're guaranteed to screw up at least a few times and cross the yellow. However, I've only ever done it by running a bit wide, never by cutting the corner like those in the picture. And the few times I did it, I cursed and beat myself up about it for quite awhile after.

Poor driving by morons who watch too much racing on TV.
When I ride or drive, I make believe the double yellow line is made of razor blades.
Dog shit covered razor blades.

I believe the yellow line is a recommendation to downshift and gas it.

You too hugh?
It's really bad when there is fresh skiff of snow obscuring the lines. My question: When somebody crosses that line, what the hell they gonna do when another vehicle is coming at them? The divsion is there fore a reason.

Back in the day, before it became the dragon, I always rode it in the attack mode. I only crossed the double yellow when I wanted too. Crossing the double yellow when there's a clear sight line and no traffic won't kill you. Blowing the corner and crossing the double yellow on the exit is just asking for it.

Since the double yellow is actually made of yellow paint, I don't hesitate to cross it when there's a reason to.....such as passing traffic moving at a glacial pace

Lean more and hope you left enough lean angle in reserve before hard parts hit.
This is assuming the infraction was caused by going wide. If it's because you cut the corner like these jackasses, just easily put yourself back where you're supposed to be.

the razor blades magically go away when there is a spot worthy of a pass
