Cevap

You should not enter the area unless it is necessary and you can see that it is safe to do so.
According to UK Highway Code Rule 130, diagonal stripes and chevron markings are used to separate traffic streams or protect turning traffic. When bounded by a broken white line, drivers should not enter the area unless it is necessary and clearly safe to do so.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the type of road marking and boundary line.
The road features central diagonal hatched stripes bounded by a broken white line.
The nature of the boundary line determines whether an action is an advisory restriction or an absolute legal prohibition.
2
Apply UK Highway Code Rule 130 for broken-line hatched areas.
Rule 130 states that if the area is bordered by a broken white line, drivers should not enter unless it is necessary and safe.
This differentiates broken borders from solid white borders, where entry is strictly prohibited except in an emergency.
