What does a solid yellow line on your side of the road mean?

  1. Passing is allowed

  2. Turning movements only

  3. It is illegal to pass

  4. Passing allowed for bikes

The correct answer is: It is illegal to pass

A solid yellow line on your side of the road signifies that it is illegal to pass. Passing is only allowed if there is a broken yellow line or if you have the permission of a police officer. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they suggest that passing is allowed in certain situations, which is not the case when there is a solid yellow line on your side of the road.
