Zorluk: ZorLane Discipline and Positioning

When driving on a road where traffic lanes are separated by an area of white diagonal stripes bordered by a continuous (solid) white line, a driver is permitted to enter this hatched area to overtake a slow-moving vehicle if the road ahead appears clear.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False. You must not enter an area of white diagonal stripes bordered by a solid white line except in an emergency.
According to Rule 130 of the Highway Code, areas of white diagonal stripes bordered by a continuous (solid) white line must not be entered except in an emergency. Overtaking a slower vehicle does not constitute an emergency.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the type of road marking and boundary line specified in the scenario.
The road features central diagonal stripes (hatched markings) bounded by a solid (continuous) white line.
Different boundary markings dictate whether entry into a marked area is legally prohibited or conditionally allowed.
2
Apply Highway Code Rule 130 regarding solid boundary lines on hatched road sections.
Entering an area bordered by a continuous solid white line is a mandatory legal prohibition ('MUST NOT') with only one exception: an emergency.
Solid white road markings indicate strict mandatory prohibitions rather than advisory guidance.
3
Evaluate whether overtaking slower traffic meets the exemption criteria.
Routine overtaking does not constitute an emergency, making entry into the solid-bordered hatched area unlawful.
Convenience or clear forward visibility does not override mandatory solid line regulations.
