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.

Broken White line :-

Broken white lines indicate that you may change the lane to overtake a vehicle with proper caution & indicating through proper signals.

One solid yellow line :-

This line indicates that you cannot cross the line but can overtake.

Broken Yellow line :-

Passing is allowed but with caution.

Double solid yellow lines :-

You can’t cross these lines unless you have to avoid obstructions(a fallen tree, a crashed vehicle etc.)

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 ! 😛
