Traffic lights and pavement markingsQuestion 174 of 318
A grey road with a solid yellow line on the left and a broken yellow line on the right in the middle. A white arrow points up in the lane to the right of the lines.

You drive in the lane at the right of these lines, in the direction of the arrow. What is true?

  1. You may not cross, because one line is solid
  2. You may cross when safe: the broken line is on your side
  3. You may cross at any time, if the road is clear
  4. You may cross only to turn right
Show answer

Correct answer: You may cross when safe: the broken line is on your side

Combined lines let a driver cross only when the broken line is on that driver's side. The other driver, who has the solid line, may not cross.
