I know in our state a pass made using the center left/right turn lane is illegal and could get you a ticket. (A little food for thought)...
I believe it's illegal here (Washington) too. In hindsight, I should not have passed. It was illegal (and cops do patrol there often because it's obviously a major speedtrap). Admittedly, there was little chance someone would have been in the center turn lane since along that stretch of road there was nowhere for anyone to turn left into in front of me. Regardless, I'll take the advice of the forum and drop back further next time.
