Can You Drive Over Traffic Channelizing Lines?
1 Answers
Channelizing lines cannot be driven over. Channelizing lines are a type of traffic marking designed to guide vehicles to follow the prescribed route while driving. It is not allowed to commit the violation of crossing these lines. All drivers must correctly identify channelizing lines to ensure safe and civilized driving. Additional information is as follows: 1. Meaning of Channelizing Lines: When regular channelization is implemented at intersections or entrances/exits, the "excess" area formed outside the lane markings after delineating the driving range of lanes at the intersection's entrance/exit or road entrances/exits is the "safety channelizing island" that motor vehicles should not enter. These areas are usually marked with zebra stripes or V-shaped lines, and their outlines are the channelizing lines that guide traffic flow. Channelizing lines are white in color. 2. Purpose: To standardize vehicle movement along prescribed routes at road sections, intersections, and entrances/exits, channelizing lines are used to warn drivers against crossing or driving over the lines, emphasizing the need for safety and heightened vigilance.
