A broken white line means you may cross the line to change lanes.

Lane markings tell you when it's legal to change lanes. A broken white line between lanes moving in the same direction means you may cross it to change lanes, as long as it’s safe. Signal before moving, check mirrors and your blind spots, and ensure there’s enough space for the shift. A solid white line between lanes tells you not to cross to change lanes, a double white line generally blocks crossing, and a single solid white line often marks the road edge or a boundary you shouldn’t cross for lane changes. So, the broken white line is the one that allows changing lanes when safe.
