What does a double solid yellow line signify?

• A. No passing in either direction.
• B. Passing is allowed on the left side only.
• C. You may pass if traffic is clear on your side.
• D. It marks a bicycle lane.

Answer: (A)

Double solid yellow lines mean no passing in either direction. They separate traffic moving in opposite directions and are used where visibility is limited or where passing would be dangerous. You should stay in your lane and not cross those lines to pass another vehicle. The idea is to keep opposing traffic safely separated. Dash lines indicate passing is allowed when safe, and a line marking a bicycle lane is a different road feature, so those options don’t apply here.
