What does a solid white line at the left side of the road indicate?

  1. Bicycle lane begins

  2. The end of the carriageway

  3. Parking area

  4. Pedestrian zone

The correct answer is: The end of the carriageway

A solid white line at the left side of the road indicates the end of the carriageway. This means that the road narrows or ends on that side and it is not safe to drive beyond that line. Option A, B, and D are incorrect as they are not directly related to the solid white line at the left side of the road. A bicycle lane beginning would typically be marked by a bicycle symbol, a bicycle lane sign, or a solid white or yellow line. Option C, parking area, may be marked by a broken white line or by designated parking signs and symbols. Option D, pedestrian zone, would be marked by signs and symbols indicating a pedestrian-only area. It is important to follow the appropriate road markings to ensure safe driving and avoid potential accidents.
