On a Texas highway, a solid white line painted between lanes of traffic moving in the same direction means:
- A.Lane changes are encouraged there
- B.It marks a bicycle lane only
- C.Lane changes are discouraged or restricted; stay in your lane where it is used, such as near an interchange
- D.The lane is ending immediately
Correct answer
C. Lane changes are discouraged or restricted; stay in your lane where it is used, such as near an interchange
Why
Solid white lines discourage lane changes in areas where changing lanes is risky. Keep your lane position and plan changes where broken lines allow them.
