Practice question

What does a double solid line on the road indicate?

  1. No lane changing allowed
  2. Lane changing permitted
  3. Construction zone ahead
  4. Bike lane marking

Answer: A — No lane changing allowed

A double solid line on the road indicates that no lane changing is allowed. This marking is used to clearly communicate to drivers that they must remain within their designated lane and should not cross over to the adjacent lane. It is designed to enhance safety, particularly in areas where lane changes could pose risks, such as near intersections, in high-traffic zones, or where visibility is limited. The presence of a double solid line signals to drivers the importance of maintaining their lane position, as crossing over could lead to accidents or inconvenience to other road users. Following this rule is essential for safe driving practices and contributes to overall traffic order.
