What does a solid white lane marking mean?

  1. traffic is going in different directions, driver may pass only when no traffic is coming from the other direction

  2. traffic is going the same direction, driver may switch lanes

  3. traffic is going the same direction, do not attempt lane change

  4. traffic is going in different directions, do not attempt lane change

The correct answer is: traffic is going the same direction, driver may switch lanes

A solid white lane marking indicates that traffic is going in the same direction, and drivers may switch lanes if needed. This marking is used to guide drivers safely and efficiently on the road by separating lanes of traffic moving in the same direction. Therefore, option B is correct. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the meaning of a solid white lane marking. Option A implies passing in the opposite direction, which is typically not allowed with a solid white line. Option C suggests not attempting a lane change, which is not the case with a solid white line marking. Option D also inaccurately states not attempting a lane change for traffic going in different directions, which is not related to a solid white line marking.
