A single broken yellow line means traffic on either side may cross the center line to pass another vehicle.

Passing rules are shown by centerline markings. A single broken yellow line means you may pass another vehicle if the way is clear and you have enough space to complete the maneuver safely, and this applies in both directions. You should only pass when you have a clear view of oncoming traffic and enough room to return to your lane without cutting off anyone or speeding up abruptly. Near intersections, curves, or hills, or when visibility is limited, you should refrain from passing even with a broken line. By contrast, a single solid yellow line means no passing from either direction, a double solid yellow line also prohibits crossing, and a center line by itself isn’t a specific passing rule.
