Ah, the single yellow line - a source of confusion for many drivers! It’s one of those road rules that can be tricky to remember. But don’t worry, I’m here to help you out. You see, a single yellow line means no parking or stopping at any time - so if you’re ever in doubt, just keep on driving! And if you do happen to spot a single yellow line while out and about, it’s best to err on the side of caution and not stop. After all, better safe than sorry!
What Do You Call A Single Yellow Line On The Road? [Solved]
Well, if you see a single solid yellow or white line, don’t even think about passing - it’s a no-go. On certain two-way roads with multiple lanes, it’s also used to separate traffic. For example, on EDSA there’s a single solid yellow line that marks the bus lane. And at intersections, those solid lines are there to remind drivers to stay in their own lane - so don’t cross ’em!
No Overtaking: Overtaking is not allowed on roads with a single yellow line, as it is a sign of danger and can lead to accidents.
Limited Stopping: Stopping is only allowed in certain circumstances, such as when picking up or dropping off passengers or goods, or when waiting for an emergency vehicle to pass.
Lane Merging: Drivers are not permitted to merge into the lane with the single yellow line unless they are turning right at the next junction or intersection.
Parking Restrictions: Parking is generally prohibited on roads with a single yellow line, except in designated areas where parking may be allowed for limited periods of time (e.g., loading bays).
Speed Limit: The speed limit on roads with a single yellow line should be observed at all times and drivers should take extra care when driving in these areas due to the increased risk of accidents caused by overtaking and merging traffic lanes without proper caution and consideration for other road users
A single yellow line on the road means no parking. It’s a no-no! So, don’t even think about it - you’ll get a ticket for sure. Just keep driving and find somewhere else to park your car.
