2 solid yellow lines
indicate no passing. Never drive to the left of these lines unless you are: • In a carpool lane/high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane that has a designated entrance on the left. (1) Solid yellow line: No passing if the solid yellow line is on your side. (2) Double solid lines: DO NOT pass. (3) Broken yellow line: May pass if movement can be made safely. Examples of lane markings: - 45 - • Instructed by construction or other signs to drive on the other side of the road because your side of the road is closed or blocked. • Turning left across a single set of double yellow lines to enter or exit a driveway or private road, or make a U-turn.
Broken yellow lines
indicate that you may pass if the broken line is next to your driving lane.
Solid Yellow Line
mark the center of a road used for two-way traffic.
Solid white lines
mark traffic lanes going in the same direction, such as one-way streets.
Two sets of solid double yellow lines spaced 2 feet or more apart are considered a barrier.
Do not drive on or over this barrier, make a left turn, or a U-turn across it, except at designated openings
Double white lines
are two solid white lines that indicate a lane barrier between a regular use and a preferential use lane, such as a carpool/HOV. Never change lanes while in these lanes; wait until a single broken white line appears. You may also see these parallel lines in or near freeway on and off ramps.
Broken white lines
separate traffic lanes on roads with two or more lanes in the same direction
