When the boundary line of a traffic lane is marked with a solid yellow line, lane changes are prohibited in all situations.

[True / False · Medium]

Answer: False

Explanation

When the boundary line of a traffic lane is marked with a solid yellow line, lane changes are prohibited in principle, but there are exceptions such as yielding to emergency vehicles or making unavoidable lane changes to turn right or left. The Rules of the Road clarify that this is not an absolute prohibition "in all situations."
