Pavement markings and pedestrian crossoversStandalone practice
When driving in a lane designated by a solid white line, what does the line indicate?
Two eastbound lanes are separated by a solid white line. Blue car A occupies the right lane. Silver car B occupies the left lane.
Correct answer: Lane changes should be avoided
Why
A solid white line separating lanes of traffic moving in the same direction indicates that lane changing is hazardous and should be avoided. A broken white line means you can change lanes if safe.
