Double Yellow Lines: Double yellow lines are a professional term commonly used to describe traffic markings. Yellow lines refer to both single and double yellow lines. When driving on the road, you will notice yellow lines painted in the middle of the road, acting like a divider to separate traffic moving in opposite directions. Double yellow lines consist of two parallel solid yellow lines, usually painted in the center of the road as ground markings. If one of the lines is solid and the other is dashed, vehicles may cross from the dashed side under safe conditions, such as for overtaking or making a U-turn. However, double yellow lines should not be casually crossed. At intersections with traffic lights, double solid yellow lines are typically painted on the ground in left-turn lanes. Vehicles making a left turn when the traffic light permits must not cross these double yellow lines. Accidentally crossing double yellow lines during a left turn will be automatically captured by traffic cameras as a violation. If traffic police are on duty at the time, they may also manually record the violation and issue an on-the-spot fine. Crossing solid yellow lines during a left turn at a traffic light is considered driving outside the designated lane and is subject to a fine of 200 yuan and a deduction of 3 points from the driver's license.
