A solid yellow line next to a broken yellow line indicates that vehicles next to the broken line ______________.

• A. should cross at any time
• B. should not cross
• C. can only cross during daytime
• D. must yield to oncoming traffic

Answer: (B)

A solid yellow line next to a broken yellow line signifies that vehicles next to the broken line are permitted to cross only when it is safe to do so. This means that while the vehicle adjacent to the broken line has the right to pass, it does not have the same privilege as the vehicles next to the solid line, which must remain in their lane. This designation helps maintain safe driving practices by clearly indicating to drivers that crossing into the opposing lane is restricted for vehicles near the solid line, thereby reducing the risk of head-on collisions. The rule supports the overall safety of all road users by setting clear boundaries on where crossing is allowed.
