Yellow paint on the road means NO. No passing, no parking, no stopping. Ever.
The yellow triangle next to the blue catโs eye on the road means no parking at the side of the road the triangle is pointing to. Thereโs a fire hydrant there.

The yellow triangle next to the blue catโs eye on the road means no parking at the side of the road the triangle is pointing to. Thereโs a fire hydrant there.
Broken yellow lines on the side of the road means no parking at any time. Itโs not safe.
Double solid yellow lines in the middle, or a single solid yellow line on your side of the centre lines means no passing. Itโs not safe.
Double yellow lines across the road means no crossing. Itโs a stop sign.
Broken yellow lines in the middle means safely complete your passing before now. Youโre about to run out of road space. Or, chill out, the passing lane is just ahead.
Yellow crosshatching on the road, outside fire stations and schools, entrances and exits, means no stopping. Ever. Itโs not safe and you are impeding the flow of traffic.
Traffic, while easing around schools, due to seniors having finished high school for the year, is behaving worse. Drivers are stoping and parking in dangerous places. Impeding the flow of traffic, angering other drivers, who take greater risks. It isnโt necessary. Just look. Be conscious of where you are. And drive accordingly.
Donโt stop in the wrong places. Donโt stop in roundabouts, in intersections (if you canโt exit, donโt enter. Just ask yourself โcould a fire engine get through to save my family), on pedestrian crossings, at courtesy crossings (unless someone is already crossing), at uncontrolled school crossings, unless someone is already on them or the signs are out to stop (children need to learn cars wonโt always stop for them, and they donโt have right of way). Donโt stop on the crosshatching outside the fire/ambulance stations, supermarkets or the schools.
Yellow means NO. That includes yellow/amber lights. They ARE STOP LIGHTS. Always stop unless unsafe to do so.
Oh, and by the by, the three car parks in the side of the parking area at The Warehouse are parallel parks, not 90ยฐ parks. You can tell by a few things. Mainly that cars donโt fit in them, nose or tail in. You have to park half way into the driving lane, when you park the wrong way. And the 90ยฐ parks have dividing lines and are a lot longer. Cars, van and utes fit in them. Itโs a great place to practice parallel parking, safely.
Thus concludes our road safety lesson for today. Have a nice, safe, day. Letโs all get through the end of the day, year and next, together.
