A broken yellow line in the center of a two-way road means:

• A. In the center of a two-way road tells you that passing is not allowed.
• B. Passing and turning are allowed in both directions when safe.
• C. You must stop at the line.
• D. It marks the edge of the road.

Answer: (B)

A dashed yellow centerline tells you crossing the line to pass another vehicle is allowed if it’s safe. It also means you can make left turns across the line when there’s a safe gap and no oncoming traffic danger. The key is safety: only pass when you have a clear view of traffic ahead and enough space to return to your lane without affecting other drivers. This marking gives passing opportunities in zones where visibility and space are adequate, unlike solid lines that prohibit crossing. It doesn’t indicate you must stop at the line or mark the road’s edge.
