    Did you actually read the article? It specifically calls out “overtaking on double white lines” which is ILLEGAL for a very good reason. It’s not calling ordinary overtaking dangerous.

    In case you’re unfamiliar with the road rules in UK, Europe where the US has double yellow lines to mark a centre line that is illegal to cross, those lines are white here.

    They indicate that it is unsafe to overtake (lack of visibility due to bends etc)

    Anyone who overtakes on a double centreline is an utter twat and well deserves to be called dangerous
