It means you cannot pass on your side of the road, normally because you cannot see far enough ahead of you to make a safe pass of the car ahead of you.
However the people traveling in the opposite direction can pass if the way is clear.
The middle line, wther it is double or not, indicates wether it is allowed to drive past the cars in front of you or not. Short lines with long spaces between means that is it ok to drive past, one long, uninterrrupted line means that it is really dangerous and NOT allowed, at all. The longer the spaces between, the safer and more ok it is to pass. When there is two lines instead of only one, it is different on the right and the left side of the road. You follow the one on your side. If you drive on the left, follow the left line, vica versa.
Short Answer: If the solid yellow line is on your side - you may not pass.
No passing.
Clarification: No passing by traffic moving in the same direction you are - HOWEVER - passing by traffic moving in the opposite direction is allowable

A solid yellow line next to a broken yellow line means that vehicles next to the broken line may pass. The yellow lines define the road as two way, traffic opposing each other. The side of the road with the solid yellow line facing it is a no-passing zone, while the opposite side of the road, with the intermittent line facing it, passing is permitted.
It means that your lane cannot pass.
A center line that is solid yellow signifies a no passing zone for the lane the line is on. A double yellow line means no passing for either lane. A broken yellow line means you can pass another vehicle.
An orange is a variable object this means that it can be a solid, but once broken can be a liquid.
If the broken yellow is on YOUR side, you may pass when safe to do so. You must have your car back in your lane before the lines become double solid yellow. If the broken line is on the other side, that lane may pass if safe to do so. If a stretch of road has only a broken yellow line, either lane may pass IF safe but you must now be extra cautious as to what drivers intend to do.
