How many points are deducted for changing lanes by crossing a solid line on an elevated road?
1 Answers
Changing lanes by crossing a solid line will result in a deduction of 3 points. The following are road markings that must not be crossed: White solid line: The purpose of a white solid line is to separate lanes in the same direction, usually painted before traffic lights at intersections. Many drivers are caught violating traffic rules by crossing this type of marking. Single yellow solid line: The purpose of a single yellow solid line is to prohibit vehicles from crossing or driving over the line in both directions. Single yellow solid lines are painted on roads with only one lane in a single direction or one motor vehicle lane and one non-motor vehicle lane, as well as on sections where overtaking is prohibited due to other hazards. Yellow no-parking solid line: When a single yellow solid line is painted along one side of the road, it becomes a 'no-parking marking,' indicating that parking is prohibited for any vehicle in that section.
