I ride the white line. I stay close to it. It makes the road more fun, and makes you safer.

Of course we never cross the double yellow. My advice is don't even touch it the slightest bit.

**Important courtesy/waving rules**

**If someone is following YOU closely, they likely want to pass. There are PLENTY of paved pulloff spot at the Dragon now. Pull off at the next one, and give them a friendly wave by. We all have the same interests here on the dragon and there is no reason to make a single enemy.

**If YOU come up on someone going slow, maintain a steady and safe distance behind them. Stay in their vision, but do not tailgate. Tailgating will only show an ego/attitude and they will not pull off for you. When they pull off for you, be sure to give a DELIBERATE friendly wave that they can clearly see.

As we all drive the same car, we have a big responsibility to each other. One car can give us all a bad name.

Plus you will not enjoy the banquet if Killboy gets you crossing the double yellow His guys are all over the dragon with cameras.

That's because Patrick could bear to cross the yellow line.

Safety has been, and continues to be, absolutely paramount on the Dragon

Its the racing stripes on the Porsche....

It needs both lanes due to the extra HP from the stripes, to keep on the road!
