Cevap

The road markings indicate that a hazard or junction is approaching ahead.
Under Rule 127 of the UK Highway Code, hazard warning lines are indicated by longer painted dashes with shorter gaps between them. These lines alert drivers to an upcoming hazard, such as a sharp bend, junction, or brow of a hill, warning them not to cross unless the road is clear.
