no-passing zone

No lane changes

A no-passing zone is a stretch of road where drivers are prohibited from overtaking other vehicles, typically marked by solid yellow lines.

These zones appear on curves, hills, or near intersections where limited visibility makes passing dangerous: He got a ticket for crossing into the oncoming lane in a no-passing zone.
