What is the purpose of the solid white line on a road?
Solid white lines are used to indicate travel lanes going in the same direction and discourage lane changes. These lines are intended to enhance safety by clearly defining the left and right edges of the lanes, especially on roads with multiple lanes where it might be dangerous to switch lanes frequently or abruptly.
