Schock cavalry

Played Med French v Ottoman yesterday,must remember not to approach LB /B foot in 2 ranks of armoured cavalry,even with 1HP2B as the target I was regularly taking tests and as you all know in my current form (that will change in South Africa)failed them regularly ,I got 2 BG of 4 into contact which led to the question. The knights were lined up behind the bow line and lost control,We couldn't find anything in the rules do they burst through and rplace the foot in combat or do something else if so what

They burst through if the bows are not yet in melee. If the bows are in melee, they don't have to test not to charge.
