Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
Two solid yellow center lines separate opposing traffic. What do they mean for an ordinary driver?
An empty two-way road shows double solid yellow center lines, with no car, driveway opening, stated turning intention or route.
Correct answer: Do not cross to pass; a safe left turn into a driveway is allowed.
Why
Solid yellow center lines prohibit crossing to pass. The Alaska manual permits a left turn into a driveway across them when it is otherwise lawful and safe. Signal, yield to oncoming traffic, and check pedestrians; a turn exception is not a passing exception.
