Which line indicates passing is allowed between lanes?

• A. A dashed white line indicates you may pass.
• B. A solid white line indicates you may pass.
• C. A dashed line indicates you must stay in your lane.
• D. A dashed white line indicates you may pass if it is safe and not restricted by other signs.

Answer: (D)

Passing between lanes is allowed when there’s a dashed line between lanes moving in the same direction, and you may only do it if it’s safe and there are no signs restricting the maneuver. The dashed white line specifically signals that changing lanes or passing is permitted, provided you signal, check that the lane next to you is clear, and ensure there’s enough space. Avoid passing on curves, hills, near intersections, or where a no-passing sign applies. The other statements aren’t as accurate: a dashed white line isn’t an unconditional pass, a solid line means you should stay in your lane, and a dashed line by itself doesn’t always guarantee that passing is allowed without considering safety and any restrictions.
