Indicate you are in a no passing zone.
Separate lanes of traffic moving in opposite directions.
Separate lanes of traffic moving in the same direction.
Explanation

Broken yellow lines separate lanes of traffic moving in opposite directions. These broken lines indicate that drivers are entering a two-way traffic zone and must stay on their side of the road to avoid a head-on collision. Passing is allowed on the side of the road where the broken yellow line is located, provided it is safe to do so.
