In Pennsylvania, what does a solid yellow line nearest your vehicle prohibit when paired with a broken yellow line?
- No, passing is prohibited from your side
- Yes, passing is always permitted from either side
- Only trucks may pass from your side
- The line means the road is one-way
Answer: No, passing is prohibited from your side. A solid yellow line on your side of a combination centerline means you may not pass. The driver facing the broken yellow line may pass when conditions are safe, but that permission does not cross over to your lane. The truck-only option invents a vehicle exception, and the one-way option misreads a centerline that separates opposing traffic. Before passing, read the line nearest your vehicle and obey the restriction shown there.
