Lane Use, Turning & Passing

A single broken yellow line is in the center of a two-way road. This means:

  • A.Passing is allowed from either direction when it is safe
  • B.No passing at any time
  • C.The road is one-way
  • D.Passing is allowed only for trucks
Correct answer

A. Passing is allowed from either direction when it is safe

Why

A broken yellow center line allows passing from either side when no oncoming traffic or hazard makes it unsafe. A solid line on your side would prohibit passing from your direction.
