Centre line or lane line

Mittlinje eller körfältslinje

What does the sign mean?

The line shows the boundary between lanes.

Where it applies

  • A centre line separates lanes for opposite directions.
  • A lane line separates lanes in the same direction.
  • A centre line can also mark the middle of a cycle path.

Exam trap

The line looks the same in both cases. Look at the road: is traffic going the same way or opposite ways?

Do not mix up with

Warning line: long dashes and short gaps, warning that crossing is unsuitable.
