signals-markings
What do yellow center lines indicate about traffic on the road?
- They separate traffic traveling in opposite directions
- They separate lanes traveling in the same direction
- They mark a lane reserved for bicycles
- They show where parking is permitted
Answer: They separate traffic traveling in opposite directions. Yellow center lines divide traffic moving in opposite directions. They help establish which side of the roadway carries opposing vehicles, while white lines generally separate lanes moving in the same direction. The same-direction choice confuses the two marking colors, and neither bicycle use nor parking is established by a yellow center line. Keep right of the center marking, watch for additional broken or solid patterns, and never cross simply because the road looks empty.
