|
May pass only if you are within 100 feet of a bridge, tunnel, or railroad crossing.

Explanation
Lanes of traffic moving in opposite directions are separated by yellow lane lines. If the centerline has a solid line next to a broken one, vehicles on the side of the solid line may not pass. Drivers on the side of the broken line may pass, as long as it is safe to do so. Double solid yellow lines mean that vehicles traveling in either direction are not allowed to pass.
