Under safe conditions and without obstructing traffic, you can make a left turn but not a U-turn. Definition of double yellow dashed lines: Double yellow dashed lines indicate reversible lanes. Reversible lanes are lanes where the direction of traffic changes at different times of the day based on varying traffic flow. Within cities, depending on the traffic conditions during peak hours, one or more lanes on suitable roads are designated to change direction according to different time periods. The direction of travel on these lanes is controlled by lane signal lights to adjust the number of lanes and improve lane usage efficiency. Driving requirements for double yellow dashed lines: Whether it's a single yellow line or double yellow lines, as long as they are solid lines, crossing is strictly prohibited, including actions like overtaking, turning, or making U-turns. Under normal driving conditions, you should not cross the line. Whether it's a single yellow line or double yellow lines, as long as they are dashed lines, you can overtake or make a U-turn safely. Single yellow lines are generally used on roads with up to four lanes (including bicycle lanes), while double yellow lines are typically used on wider roads.
