The fact that double yellow means "crossing the centerline markings for passing is prohibited" and not "crossing the centerline markings is prohibited" is quite significant. You can, if it is safe and not otherwise prohibited, make a left turn across a double yellow. You can, if it is safe and not otherwise prohibited, make a U-turn across a double yellow. The only sense in which a double yellow prevents crossing "if there are no intersections nearby", is if any place where someone might turn is called an intersection. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
