What are the two parallel white solid lines at an intersection?
1 Answers
Two parallel white solid lines at an intersection are stop lines. They indicate that vehicles should stop and yield to vehicles on the main road at this intersection. Stop lines are usually used in conjunction with stop signs. Below is an introduction to traffic markings: The function of white solid lines is to separate lanes in the same direction, typically painted before traffic lights at intersections. They remind drivers approaching intersections with stop lines to stop or slow down and observe the traffic conditions on the main road. Single yellow solid lines prohibit vehicles from crossing or driving on the line in both directions. They are painted on roads with only one lane or one motor vehicle lane and one non-motor vehicle lane, or on sections where overtaking is prohibited due to other hazards. Double yellow solid lines have the same function as single yellow solid lines, also prohibiting vehicles from crossing or driving on the line in both directions. Double yellow solid lines are painted on roads with two or more motor vehicle lanes in one direction and without a physical central divider. Single yellow dashed lines indicate lane separation, allowing drivers to cross the line for overtaking, turning, etc., under the premise of ensuring the safety of oncoming vehicles and their own safety. Horizontal deceleration markings are a set of parallel white dashed lines used to remind drivers to slow down. Vertical deceleration markings are a set of diamond-shaped dashed lines parallel to the lane dividers.
