What does a solid yellow line alongside a road indicate?

  1. No passing

  2. Emergency vehicles may pass

  3. Proceed with caution

  4. You must yield the right of way

The correct answer is: No passing

Solid yellow lines alongside a road indicate a no passing zone. This means that drivers are not allowed to overtake or pass other vehicles while driving on that side of the road. Emergency vehicles may not pass on solid yellow lines as they are reserved for non-emergency situations. While drivers should always proceed with caution, this is not the specific meaning of a solid yellow line. Yielding the right of way is a separate traffic rule and not related to solid yellow lines.
