A double solid yellow line in the center of the highway is there to separate the two directions of traffic. In most cases, you should not cross that line. On a two-lane road where passing is allowed, one line (or both) will usually become a dashed yellow line. Some locales do not allow turns off the highway across a double yellow line.

Double solid yellow is between two lanes of traffic with oppsing directions. This indicates no passing a vehicle that is traveling the same direction by moving to the oposing lane momentarily.
