Double White/Yellow Lines: Used where visibility is restricted in both directions. Neither stream of traffic is allowed to cross the lines.
Combination Of Solid And Broken Lines: If the line on your side is broken, you may cross or straddle it. OverTake - but only if it is safe to do so. If the line on your side is continious you must not cross or straddle it.
Stop Line: A stop line is a single solid transverse line painted before the intersecting edge of the road junction/ intersection.This line indicates where you are required to stop when directed by traffic officer, traffic light of stop sign. Where a pedestrian crossing is provided, the stop line is marked before the pedestrian crossing.
Give Way Line: The give way line is usually a double dotted line marked transversely at junctions. These lines are generally supplemented by a reverse triangle give way sign painted on the road surface before the dotted lines or by a road sign installed beside the marking. Give way to traffic on the main approaching road.
Border or Edge Lines: These are continuous lines at the edge of the carriageway and mark the limits of the main carriageway upto which a driver can safely venture.
Parking Prohibited Lines: A solid continuous yellow line painted on the kerb or edge of the carriageway along with a "No-parking" sign indicates the extent of no-parking area.
Yellow Box Junctions or Keep Clear: These are yellow crossed diagonal lines within the box. The vehicles should cross it only if they have a clear space available ahead of the yellow box. In this marked area vehicles must not stop even briefly.
Pedestrian Crossings These are alternate black and white stripes painted parallel to the road generally known as zebra crossing. Pedestrians must cross only at the point where these lines are provided and when the signal is in their favour at controlled crossings.You must stop and give way to pedestrians at these crossings. Pedestrian crossings are marked to facilitate and give the right of way to pedestrians.
