Question 5616

This road is more than 6 meters wide. Is it correct to drive over the lines that separate the lanes?

  1. Yes, when no vehicles are coming in the opposite direction.
  2. No, because I must drive within my lane.
  3. Yes, because there are two lanes.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, because I must drive within my lane.

No. You may cross broken lane lines to change lanes, turn, or pass, but you must not drive along them. You may straddle a line only if the lanes are so narrow that you need to and it is safe. That is not the case on a two-lane road more than 6 meters wide, so you stay within your lane.
