What does a solid double yellow line indicate?

• A. Passing is not allowed in either direction
• B. Only right turns allowed
• C. Passing is allowed in one direction
• D. Passing is allowed in both directions

Answer: (A)

Passing is not allowed in either direction. A solid double yellow line marks a no-passing zone on a two-way street, placed where visibility is limited or the road geometry makes overtaking dangerous. You must stay in your lane and not cross the center line to pass another vehicle; you may only pass when the road markings change to allow it (for example, if a dashed line appears beside you).
