Practice question

A vehicle may not cross a white dotted or solid line lane divider to change lanes. Is this statement true or false?

  1. True
  2. False
  3. Only if there is oncoming traffic
  4. Only during rush hour

Answer: B — False

The statement is false because it is permissible for a vehicle to cross a white dotted line lane divider to change lanes. White dotted lines indicate that lane changes are allowed, as they signify that the lanes are moving in the same direction and can be crossed safely under normal conditions. However, specific regulations may apply in certain circumstances, such as when changing lanes could pose a danger due to nearby vehicles or other hazards. On the other hand, crossing a solid white line is generally not allowed, as it indicates that lane changes could be unsafe. Understanding the meaning of these lane markings is essential for safe driving practices and compliance with traffic laws.
