Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
A solid yellow line is nearest you and a broken yellow line is beside opposing traffic. May you cross to pass an ordinary motor vehicle?
A approaches with a solid yellow line on its side of the centre marking. B faces the opposite way beside the broken yellow line. Neither car has a highlighted route.
Correct answer: No; a solid line on your side means you may not pass.
Why
For the ordinary motor-vehicle pass in this question, follow the line on your side: the solid line prohibits crossing to pass. The broken-line side may pass only when otherwise lawful and clear. A lawful left turn and Maryland’s narrowly qualified bicycle-passing exception are separate situations.
