Road Marking - What do the different lines and colors on the road mean in India?

While driving, we all have noticed white and yellow lines on road.But have you ever thought about this?Every driver needs to know the different meanings of those common road markings.Don't panic even if you have no knowledge about it as we have come up with the right information.

Different Types of Road Marking:-

Broken White Line :

Around the country, this is the most widespread type of road used. A broken white line in the middle of the road gives you permission to change lanes, overtake and take U-turns. But you need to ensure beforehand that the road is clear and it is safe to perform.So, dear driver switch the lane only if it's safe to do so.

Continuous White Line :

 A continuous white line is a tad stricter.It express that you are not allowed to overtake other vehicles or take U-turns. If you are on this type of road, just keep moving straight.But this rule can vary from one state to another.For e.g in Telangana, a solid yellow line means no overtaking. 


Continuous Yellow Line : 

One Continuous Yellow Line gives you the permission to overtake other vehicles but when you are on your side(without crossing the yellow line).


Double Continuous Yellow Line :

A Double Continuous Yellow line indicates that  changing lane or overtaking other vehicles is not allowed over solid yellow line.This pattern is usually seen on dangerous 2-lane roads where there is a high potential for disasters.

Broken Yellow Line :

Like the broken white line, while driving over the broken yellow line, one can pass the vehicles, but with caution. 

Now you know what these lines are for. The next time you're on the road, try looking for people who follow these rules. Well, if there are any.
