Fahrstreifenbegrenzung — Solid lane line
Verbotszeichen · Prohibition

In plain English

The solid white line. 'Not even partly' is the StVO's own phrase — putting one wheel over it while squeezing past a cyclist is already the offence.

What you are looking at

A continuous white line painted along the road, sometimes doubled or paired with a dashed line.

Remember it like this

Where a solid line runs beside a dashed one, the line NEAREST you is the one that governs you.

Easy to confuse with — the exam exploits these

Verbotszeichen (Prohibition) — you may not. usually a red circle. Checked against StVO Anlage 1–3 on 2026-08-03.

Original practice questions — not the amtlicher Fragenkatalog. Every question, sign description and scenario here is written by us and covers the same StVO rules as the official Klasse B test. We are not TÜV, DEKRA or a Fahrschule, and we do not reproduce the official catalogue. Road signs themselves are amtliche Werke (StVO Anlage 1–3). Rules checked against StVO and FeV on 2026-08-03.

Fines and Punkte are indicative. The amounts shown come from published Bußgeldkatalog tables, not from statute, and are last verified 2026-08-03. The binding figure is the one on your own Bußgeldbescheid.
