Broken lines advise, continuous lines prohibit
A broken line works as a recommendation, a warning or a guide. A continuous line is a prohibitive line: you must not cross or straddle a continuous line that divides two lanes.
General rule: the more paint, the more important the message.
Markings may warn of danger, divide lanes, separate a cycle track or footway, or signal a prohibition.
ماخذ: Handbook §1.3, p. 16
Why markings are useful
Markings can still be seen when a sign is hidden behind other traffic, and they keep giving their message continuously as you drive along. Besides lines you will meet arrows, studs, symbols and text.
Stop lines indicate where you must stop at a road sign or traffic light.

Lines along the road
99 اندراجات
605605. Centerline
This broken line marks the center of the road. On main roads, each individual marking is 3 metres long. The distance between markings is 9 metres. In built-up areas, the dashes marking out the centerline may be spaced more closely together.
ماخذ: Handbook Appendix: Road markings, p. 218
606606. Lane lines
Broken lane lines divide the carriageway into two or more lanes of traffic traveling in the same direction. In built-up areas, the dashes marking out the lane lines may be spaced more closely together.
ماخذ: Handbook Appendix: Road markings, p. 218
607607. Prohibitory line
Crossing or straddling a prohibitory line is forbidden, even by a single wheel. Never cross this line unless there is a broken centerline between you and the prohibitory line.
ماخذ: Handbook Appendix: Road markings, p. 218
608608. Warning line
On roads that are less than 7 metres wide, warning lines are used instead of center and prohibitory lines. They may also be used on wider roads in built-up areas or give warning of a prohibitory line or hazard ahead. Crossing a warning line is prohibited unless you are certain that the road is clear. Each individual marking is 9 metres long. The distance between them is 3 metres.

Box junctions
11 اندراج
634634. Box junctions
Yellow crisscross lines mark a box junction. Their purpose is to keep the junction clear by preventing traffic from stopping in the path of crossing traffic. You must not enter a box junction unless your exit road is clear. But you can enter the box when you want to turn left end you are only prevented from doing so by oncoming traffic. If there is a vehicle already on the junction waiting to turn left, you are free to enter behind it and wait to turn left providing that you will not block any oncoming traffic wanting to turn left. If there are a number of vehicles waiting to turn, it is unlikely you will be able to proceed before the traffic signals change, so you should wait for the next clear opportunity before entering the box.
