What does it mean when there is only one motor vehicle lane in the same direction?
1 Answers
A road with only one motor vehicle lane in the same direction refers to a roadway where there is only one lane for traffic in one direction, but the road itself allows two-way traffic. This situation is commonly seen in urban roads, as well as national, provincial, and county-level highways. A road with only one motor vehicle lane in the same direction means there is only one motor vehicle lane in a single direction, regardless of whether it is marked with a solid yellow line or a dashed yellow line. The center line of such roads can only be a single yellow line, as double yellow lines are generally used on roads with two or more lanes in one direction. Roads without a center line refer to those without a yellow line to separate opposing lanes. Typically, these roads have no markings at all and are shared by motor vehicles, non-motor vehicles, and pedestrians. The difference between a road with only one motor vehicle lane in the same direction and a one-way street: A road with only one motor vehicle lane in the same direction refers to a roadway with only one lane for traffic in one direction, but the road allows two-way traffic and is commonly seen in urban roads, as well as national, provincial, and county-level highways. A one-way street, on the other hand, refers to a road that only allows motor vehicles to travel in one direction. Such roads generally have two or more lanes and are typically found only in urban areas.
