This sign is National Speed limit, it means different things to different vehicles, however for a car not towing a trailer, it means 60 MPH on single carriageway, but on Dual Carriageway it means 70 MPH


Example A is the standard white line in the middle of the road. Example B where the line lengthens and the gap between the white lines shortens, warns of potential hazard such as a bend or approaching junction, great care to be taken when crossing these lines


Example A: Double white lines where the line nearest to you is broken. This means you may cross the lines to overtake if it is safe, provided you can complete the manoeuvre before reaching a solid white line on your side. White direction arrows on the road indicate that you need to get back onto your side of the road.

Example B: Double white lines where the line nearest you is solid. This means you MUST NOT cross or straddle it unless it is safe and you need to enter adjoining premises or a side road. You may cross the line if necessary, provided the road is clear, to pass a stationary vehicle, or overtake a pedal cycle, horse or road maintenance vehicle, if they are travelling at 10 mph or less.
