Yellow lines indicate what about traffic?

Yellow lines indicate what about traffic?

• A. They separate cars going in opposite directions.
• B. They indicate you may pass.
• C. They mark the edge of the road.
• D. They are used for parking boundaries.

Answer: (A)

Yellow centerlines show that traffic flows in opposite directions on each side of the line. They guide you to stay in your lane and decide about passing based on the line pattern: a dashed line on your side means you may pass when it’s safe, while a solid line means you should not pass. If there are two solid yellow lines, passing isn’t allowed in either direction. This helps prevent head-on crashes by clearly separating opposing streams of traffic.
