When the road is marked with a solid yellow line next to a broken yellow line, and you are driving in the lane with the broken line, it means that:
|
Vehicles in the lane next to you are not allowed to pass.
|
|
|
You may pass if it’s safe to do so.
|
|
|
The lane next to you is for vehicles traveling in the opposite direction.
|
|
|
All of the above.

Explanation
A yellow centerline typically indicates that the lane on the opposite side is for oncoming traffic. When you see a broken yellow line next to your lane and a solid yellow line next to the other lane, it indicates a two-way traffic system with restrictions for passing in one direction. The broken line allows passing in your lane (when safe), while the solid yellow line prohibits it for vehicles in the opposite lane.
