Cevap
Crossing a solid yellow line on your side of the road is legally permitted when executing a left turn into or out of a driveway, private road, or alley, provided the maneuver can be completed safely without interfering with oncoming traffic.
While a solid yellow line on the driver's side prohibits passing or overtaking other vehicles, state motor vehicle codes explicitly permit drivers to cross a solid yellow line to make a left turn into or out of an alley, private road, or private driveway when traffic is clear.
