Explanation
White lane lines separate lanes of traffic moving in the same direction. If you are traveling next to a single broken white line, you are allowed to cross it to pass the vehicle in front when it is safe to do so. This is not allowed if you are traveling next to a single solid white line or next to double solid white lines.
