Double yellow lines - can you stop on them? Mod 2 bike test

[TJ1406]

Hi everyone
I'm a newbie so please be gentle with me!
I've got my Mod2 in a couple of weeks and when the examiner asks me to 'pull over when it's safe to do so' can this include double yellow lines? My instructor says it's a big no no, avoid them but I have read on one of the offical sites that as long as you are only waiting momentarily and not parking, it's OK to do so. Any thoughts?

Thanks. It's not that I'd not listen to his advice - I respect him totally, he's a good instructor. It is interesting though that so say "official" sites can give you misleading info!

Just feeling anxious I guess and keep telling myself not to 'overthink' everything - just go with the flow! I can do this (really I can!!)

No offence - but didn't you do your theory test?

Yes,I did pass my Theory test (obviously, otherwise I wouldn't be taking my Mod2 - doh!!) in fact, I aced my Mod 1 too, no faults not bad for a 51 yr old menopausal biker chick eh?!!

I don't remember a theory question about double yellow lines - I had seen information to suggest that you could stop which had surprised me and why I joined the forum to get an opinion.
Thanks to all the genuinely helpful replies - much appreciated
