What does a solid line on the road mean?

  1. No stopping or parking.

  2. No passing allowed.

  3. No left turns allowed.

  4. No right turns allowed.

The correct answer is: No passing allowed.

A solid line on the road indicates that no passing is allowed. This is because a solid line signals to drivers that it is unsafe to overtake another vehicle in that area, usually due to visibility issues, curves in the road, or intersections ahead. When you see a solid line, it serves as a warning to maintain your speed and stay in your lane rather than attempting to pass the vehicle in front of you. It promotes safety by reducing the likelihood of accidents that could occur if a driver attempts to pass in a restricted area. Understanding this helps drivers make better decisions on the road, ensuring their own safety and that of others.
