What does a solid yellow line on your side of the road mean?

Passing is allowed
Do not pass
There is a pedestrian crossing
It is a bicycle lane

The correct answer is: Do not pass

A solid yellow line on your side of the road indicates that passing is not allowed. This marking is used to signal to drivers that it is unsafe to cross into the opposite lane to overtake a vehicle. The intent behind this regulation is to enhance road safety, particularly in areas where visibility may be limited, such as curves or hills. Adhering to this guideline helps prevent potential head-on collisions by ensuring that drivers do not attempt to pass in areas where the road configuration or other factors make it dangerous to do so. Understanding these road markings is essential for responsible driving and maintaining safety on the road.
