Two solid yellow lines on a road mean:

Question: Two solid yellow lines on a road mean:

Answer options:

• Passing allowed if clear ✅ No passing in either direction
• One-way road
• Construction zone

Correct answer: No passing in either direction

Explanation: Under the Quebec Highway Safety Code, yellow lines separate traffic travelling in opposite directions, and solid lines prohibit passing. Therefore, two solid yellow lines mean passing is strictly forbidden for drivers in both directions. Passing would only be allowed if the line on your side were broken, which makes passing when clear incorrect. One-way roads are delineated by white lines rather than yellow centerlines, and temporary construction zones are marked by orange signs and cones, not permanent double yellow lines. Recognizing these pavement markings is crucial for the SAAQ theory exam, which frequently tests your knowledge of legal passing zones and road safety rules.
