Faded road markings in the UK raise safety concerns, with 71% of drivers reporting worn lines.
Road markings are vital for driver safety and navigation, conveying information that signs alone cannot, according to the UK Department of Transport.
A recent RAC study finds 71% of drivers report faded markings in their area, with 21% saying most are significantly worn, raising safety concerns.
Key markings include white stop lines at traffic lights, thicker lines indicating yield points, double broken lines for give-way rules, and hazard warning lines for hidden dangers.
Yellow lines restrict parking—single lines during posted hours, double lines at all times—while zigzag lines at schools prohibit stopping.
Understanding these markings is essential to avoid accidents and fines.
