What does a double solid yellow line indicate?

• A. You may pass when the line is broken.
• B. No passing in either direction; you may cross only to turn left into a driveway or to enter/exit a roadway where allowed.
• C. You may pass if you are turning.
• D. You may turn right on red.

Answer: (B)

Double solid yellow lines signal no passing in either direction. They’re used where a passing maneuver would be unsafe due to limited sight distance, curves, or other hazards. The correct rule is to stay in your lane and not pass another vehicle. You may cross these lines only to make a left turn into a driveway or to enter or exit a roadway when such crossing is allowed by the road layout. That’s why this option fits best: it states no passing in either direction and allows crossing only for specific left-turn movements. The other ideas—passing when lines are not solid, passing while turning, or right turns on red—don’t apply when you’re dealing with a double solid yellow line.
