Yellow lines of all types indicate the leftmost edge of where you can drive in a certain direction.

A double solid yellow line may not be crossed except when making a left-hand turn to either leave or join the road divided by said line. A single yellow line on a two-lane, two-way road serves the same purpose.

Some jurisdictions use yellow lines on one-way roadways or divided highways to indicate the left edge of the roadway.

There is no mention in the regulations about which side of the yellow lines and therefore they are effective for vehicles parked on pavements or verges.
