Is it a problem if I accidentally change lanes over a solid line on the highway?

If you accidentally change lanes over a solid line on the highway and are caught by a camera, you will be fined, but no points will be deducted from your driver's license. It is very common to cross the line when entering the highway or merging onto ramps. While dashed lines on the highway can be crossed, solid lines must not be crossed. In addition to prohibiting lane changes, solid lines on the highway also prohibit U-turns and turns. Therefore, it is important to slow down and drive carefully on the highway to allow more time to react and correct your path, avoiding traffic violations. In general, whether it is a single yellow or white solid line or a double yellow or white solid line, crossing them is not allowed. If you change lanes and find yourself driving in the opposite direction, it can be extremely dangerous.
