Can You Make a U-Turn Over Double Yellow Dashed Lines in the Middle of the Road?

[McJayden]

Double yellow dashed lines in the middle of the road allow for U-turns or overtaking. Here are the details: Yellow lines: Yellow lines are used to separate lanes of opposing traffic, typically painted down the center of the road, acting as a divider between the two directions. Specific scenarios: Whether it's a single or double yellow line, if it's solid, crossing is strictly prohibited, including overtaking, turning, or making a U-turn. Under normal driving conditions, you should not cross the line; whether it's a single or double yellow line, if it's dashed, you can overtake or make a U-turn when it's safe to do so; single yellow lines are generally used on roads with up to four lanes (including bike lanes), while double yellow lines are used on wider roads; if one of the double yellow lines is solid and the other is dashed, vehicles on the side with the dashed line can temporarily cross it for actions like overtaking or turning.
