What does a double line indicate?

What does a double line indicate?

• A. No passing
• B. Stop
• C. No parking
• D. Yield

Answer: (A)

Double solid center lines tell you that passing is not allowed in either direction. Crossing these lines to pass another vehicle is prohibited because visibility or road conditions ahead could be unsafe, such as on curves or hills. The goal is to keep traffic in its lanes and prevent risky maneuvers. This is different from other markings or signs that indicate stopping, yielding, or no parking, which relate to completely different rules and actions.
