Why do some roads have Yellow markings while others have White ?



In India, nobody gives a damn about traffic rules ! I mean our knowledge is limited to road signboards(few 😛 ) & those traffic lights & this is the reason why there is a growth in number of road accidents. So lets just know more about traffic & road rules which might make our journey safe & sound !

White solid lines :-

Solid white lines indicate that you must not cross these lines to overtake or make a U-turn & stay in the lane you are already on.

So next time if someone overtakes you by crossing a white continuous line you might wanna gun your engine & say him –

” You cannot overtake a vehicle by crossing a white solid line… *pause* B**ch ! 😛
