Is there some confusion here about holding position markings?

A standard HP line is four parallel lines, two solid and two broken. If you approach the HP from the 'solid' side you stop unless cleared otherwise, approch from the 'broken' side and you can (and normally should) cross it without slowing or stopping. If asked to report vacating a runway (in nice weather) you should make the call when the whole aircraft has crossed the first HP lines.
