Lines Introduction Lines Introduction Lines and other markings painted on the pavement are also used to control and direct traffic. Sometimes these lines will include reflective raised pavement markers which make the lines more visible, or the markers may be used to simulate the lines. Yellow and white are the two most common colors of pavement markings. Lines in these two colors have different meanings. You should be able to determine where you are on a roadway by the color and type of the lines. Yellow lines parallel to the roadway mark the center of a roadway on which there is two way traffic. Yellow lines are used in different configurations that have different meanings. If there is a single solid yellow line dividing lanes of traffic, you may not drive over this line to pass other vehicles. You may cross over a solid yellow line to make a left turn at an intersection, to enter or exit a road or a driveway, or to make a U-turn, if it can be made safely and is not otherwise prohibited. On divided highways and some other roadways, a single solid yellow line will usually be used to indicate the leftmost boundary of the drivable roadway. You should not drive to the left of this line. Sets of solid yellow lines are frequently used to divide oncoming lanes of traffic before an upcoming hazard such as a road obstruction caused by the pillar of an over-crossing. If there is a single yellow line dividing lanes of traffic and the line is broken (not continuous), you may pass over this to pass other vehicles and to make left turns into other streets, driveways and alleys if it can be done safely. If there are two yellow lines dividing lanes of traffic and the line closest to your lane is broken, you may cross over it to pass vehicles ahead, if it is safe to do so. If the line closest to your lane is solid, you may not cross over it except to turn left into a driveway or alley. If there are two solid yellow lines dividing lanes of traffic, you may not cross over them to pass another vehicle. You should never drive to the left of these lines. You may cross over a double solid yellow line to make a left turn at an intersection, to enter or exit a road or a driveway, or to make a U-turn, if it can be made safely and is not otherwise prohibited. A pair of solid double yellow lines that are two or more feet apart represent a wall or center divider. You may not drive on or over these lines for any reason . You may only make a U turn or left turn on a street divided with these lines at an opening provided for turns. In some cases, one or more sets of parallel solid yellow lines are also used to separate carpool lanes from normal traffic lanes. Do not cross over these lines to enter or exit the carpool lane. Wait until the lines are broken or for some other designated place to enter or exit the lane. (Carpool lanes are discussed in more detail under white line markings.) A center traffic lane enclosed by double yellow lines on each side with the inner lines broken may be used to start and complete left hand turns and start U-turns from either direction of traffic, but cannot be used for passing. The rules for proper use of center left turn lanes is frequently misunderstood by drivers. You must use the center left turn lane to make a left turn or U turn if one exists on the street you are driving. You must signal and completely enter the lane before making your left-hand turn. Don't stop part way into the lane, with your vehicle blocking traffic. You may only drive in this lane for a distance up to 200 feet, which is about the length of five or six vehicles. The limit on driving in a center left turn lane is to help prevent drivers from using this lane as a regular traffic lane or as a passing lane. You may not use a center left-turn lane for either of these purposes. Be careful to look for vehicles coming from the opposite direction that are pulling into a center left turn lane. Because of the potential for meeting other vehicles coming from opposite direction head-on, center left turn lanes are often referred to as "suicide lanes." When turning left from a side street or driveway, you have the option to use this lane before completing your turn. If you want to first turn into the center left-turn lane, you should signal, wait until it is safe and then drive completely into the center left turn lane. Wait in the lane with your right-turn signal on for traffic to clear before pulling into traffic. Alternatively, if traffic is clear in both directions, you can just make your left turn directly from the side-street or driveway, without first stopping in the center left turn lane. You may drive across a center left turn lane to enter a driveway or street that is directly on the other side. However, you should not use a center left-turn lane to make a right turn. Broad yellow lines crossing the road are sometimes used to indicate a school crossing. Yellow markings on the pavement which say "SCHOOL XING" will usually also be painted near school crossings. You should carefully scan for children about to cross or crossing the road when you see these markings. White lines parallel to the roadway separate lanes of traffic going in the same direction, including bicycle lanes from car lanes. White lines which cross the roadway delineate crosswalks or limit lines. Messages such as "STOP AHEAD" or arrows directing traffic in a particular lane are often painted on the pavement in white. White lines of different configurations indicate different meanings. A single or double solid white line dividing traffic lanes going in the same direction cannot be crossed for any reason. On divided highways, a single solid white line will usually be used to indicate the rightmost boundary of the drivable roadway. You should not drive to the right of this line. Sets of solid white lines are frequently used to divide the lanes before an upcoming hazard such as a road obstruction caused by the pillar of an over-crossing, or the median between a freeway off-ramp and normal traffic lanes. Again, these lines should not be crossed. Thicker solid white lines are used to separate parts of left and right turn lanes close to the intersection. If you pass the part of the turn lane that has a broken white line or no line, you may not turn over the solid line to enter the turn lane. If a single broken white line divides lanes of traffic, you may cross over the line to enter the lane next to you. If the lane you are driving in has a thicker broken white line, then the lane you are in is for exiting the roadway, merging into other lanes, or is ending. The broken line will soon become a single solid white line or a set of double solid white lines which cannot be crossed. Crosswalks are delineated with sets of broad white lines which cross the road. However, crosswalks exist at most intersections where the roadways meet at approximately 90 degree angles and there is one or more sidewalks that would continue over the roadway, whether or not there are white painted lines. This is called an unmarked crosswalk. Crosswalks are often preceded by white words painted on the road indicating "SLOW PED XING." There are special rules you must follow when dealing with pedestrians crossing the roadway, but in general you should always stop behind the crosswalk when you must stop at an intersection. Thick solid white lines that cross the roadway are used to mark the limit line at intersections and the clearance line at RR crossings. You must stop behind these lines when you stop at an intersection or railroad crossing. The limit lines at railroad crossings are often preceded by white painted letters on the pavement such as "RXR." White arrows are sometimes painted on the roadway, which indicate whether the lane proceeds ahead, merges, turns, or exits and are intended to guide your choice of lane. Large white letters and symbols are often painted on the road to warn you of upcoming signals, stop signs, or changes in the lane, bicycle lanes and crosswalks. You should keep an eye on the roadway surface for these messages when you are driving. Diamonds painted in a lane indicate that lane is for use by buses and carpools only. Using a carpool lane requires a minimum of 2 or 3 people in your vehicle (depending on what is indicated on the accompanying signs), including the driver. When local regulations require certain parking restrictions, curbs are painted specific colors to indicate the restriction. RED indicates that all parking is forbidden, including busses unless a sign is posted for busses only. YELLOW indicates stopping only for unloading or loading passengers or freight. It may also be accompanied by a sign indicating the time a vehicle may remain in the yellow zone. WHITE indicates stopping for loading or unloading passengers, or for depositing mail. GREEN indicates a timed limit parking zone BLUE indicates exclusive parking for vehicles displaying a handicapped placard or license plate.
