Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
On a two-lane road, the center has two yellow lines: a solid line on your side and a broken line on the other side. A car ahead of you drives 10 mph below the limit. What should you do?
A follows B on a two-lane road. The center line next to A is solid yellow; the line next to the opposing lane is broken.
Correct answer: Stay behind it until the line on your side becomes broken
Why
Yellow center lines separate traffic that goes in opposite directions, and white lines separate lanes that go the same way. Two solid yellow lines mean that drivers on neither side may pass. Even where passing is allowed, do not pass on hills, on curves, at intersections or near railroad crossings.
