so i got pulled over for going over the yellow center line while i was driving. since i have never been given a warning, and it was an incredibly minor offence, i was let off the hook. he just said, ok since you havent had a warning, you are free to go.
does this constitute as a warning?

I am a great deal older than most of the advisers on this site, so my advice will be somewhat different from what you have received and may continue to receive from others.
NO, a warning is like a ticket except you do not go to court and you do not pay a fine. In a sense the Officer is putting you on Probation before Judgment. If you commit a second offense during the warning period, the judge could fine you for both offences.
Since the Officer did not issue a warning summons there is no written record of the warning. While each State operates a little different I doubt the Officer could document the verbal warning in your driving record from his cruisers computer. Our legal system does not function without paperwork to justify computer documentation. Lawyers are sticklers for documentation.
It appears to me, as the saying goes, you beat the rap on this one. What you received was a verbal warning which cannot be documented.

I would say so.
