Ch. 1 · 第2節 信号

On a road where the center line is marked with a solid yellow line, vehicles cannot cross to the right side to overtake, but they may cross the line to make a right turn or to avoid obstructions.

[True / False · Hard]

Answer: True

Explanation

The Rules of the Road prohibit crossing a solid yellow center line to the right side for the purpose of overtaking, but allow exceptions for crossing the line to make a right turn or to avoid obstacles such as road construction or broken-down vehicles. It is the purpose "for overtaking" that is prohibited.
