I spotted an error on the road already without taking a second look. I think Nigerians need serious education on road safety.

Those white lines you see on the road aren't for fancy or to demarcate the lanes, it means a lot to the driver. Those lines tell where you can and where you can't overtake.

The straight white lines mean you can't overtake here while the broken white lines means you can overtake here. Applying the broken white lines on a curve is erroneous because you are telling drivers to overtake in a curve.

Nice observation.

Btw how many road users in 9ja knows d meaning of these lines. Few that are aware, don't obey rules unless enforced with extreme measures.

Even without those explaination, it won't still change the fact that we are used to what we do usually.
Some don't even know what those features stand for.
So they just drive as they can.

Is this the best road in the whole South East that this ppl won't let us rest?
Chill, i dont think the OP meant to showcase this road as a fantastic infrastructure because it is not and I am igbo by the way. i think he meant to highlight the winding road entrapped within the green mountainous vegetation. I have not seen the new road but have travelled on the old one. It is a dizzying sight to behold. Tour De france mountainous routes come to my mind. Just some context to this post, its not a big deal but the setting is beautiful

WHITE LINES painted on the pavement indicate traffic traveling in your direction. Broken White Line: you may change lanes if it is safe to do so. Solid White Line: requires you to stay within the lane and also marks the shoulder of the roadway. YELLOW LINES mark the center of a two-way road used for two-way traffic.

What do u have to say about the picture below? The road is a straight one. It has both broken and solid lines.
Does it mean that the drivers at the left hand side can overtake while those at the the right hand side should not overtake?
Explain.

Nigeria Next President Must Agree To Reform The Government
Politics in Nigeria is in total turmoil, officials are being teargased in broad daylight, herdmens are still killing our siblings in the east, and president buhari despite his best has failed in his quest to reduce corruption and terrorism because he's yet to come up with a solution to Nigeria problems. Blame games don't cut it anymore, it's time to Reform the government.
Reforming The government would require them to serve voters, not corporate or special interests. I.e (president Trump might be controversial but he's delivering on his promises to his voters and the Americans love him for it)
Public Citizen will also work to empower ordinary citizens, reduce the influence of big corporations on government, open the government to public scrutiny, and hold public officials accountable for their misdeeds.
https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/03/reforming-government-first-requires-understanding-it/521004/
The objectives of the reform should be:
1. Establishing a Government System with More Effective Political Leadership
2. Restructuring of National Administrative Organs
3. A More Transparent Administration which would be a major win for the current government policy
4. Streamlining of the Government.
There will be no more regional killings (christians and Muslims will know their rights)
Donald Trump recently Discuss Christian Killings With President Buhari

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XH6VwjX617g
Am sure you will agree with me that the Nigeria government is just like a bloated android device, trust me there are some Federal agencies out there that should be merged which will help save budget, and we will be able to secure our borders and harmonize our identity as a nation, no nation on planet earth survives without a proper citizen data which is a shame cause we don't have one in Nigeria.
Our government will be able to serve the Nigerian populance way better in this 21st century than it's current state afterall the US has a Congressional oversight program that review, monitor and supervise federal agencies, programs, activities, and policy implementation and it has been in existence since 1816 and moreover president Trump has agreed to Reform United States government for the 21st century
https://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/management/government-reform/
Nigeria will be 68 years old in a couple of months and this will show that as a nation we are progressing and moving forward. President Buhari should think of this as a birthday gift to us.
Am trying to get this message across to everyone of us who believe in the brilliant future of this great country called Nigeria.
Give us "Hope" in this country, we all deserve it

That picture there is clearly not Nigeria. I think the first observer is right. Our own Traffic Code states that one should not overtake on straight lines but only on broken ones.

Oh wow!! Nice information,but the problem is that 99% of Nigerians drivers do not know this.,so whether you put the straight or broken lines..Nigerian drivers will do what they want to do...,

Just the way zebra crossing markings on Nigerian roads are meaningless ....We need efucation on so many tnings that makes a soceity sane indeed.

The other person is right, you are wrong.

Now to the picture you posted, look at it again. Why do you think the cars on the right are stationary? It's because they cannot leave their lane. The solid white line restricts them to that lane despite the lane beside it being freer.

Look at the car in the middle, it is clearly crossing over from the left to the right because the broken white line allows it to do so.

Finally, it is obvious that the cars boxed in by the solid white line are not going straight ahead; they are all making a right turn. The lane next to it can either go straight or make a right turn.

Continue learning.

Correct well sir, broken lines means you can change lane, yes. Changing lane means using the other lane, and using the other lane is either to overtake or make a 'u turn'. YOU CAN'T DO ANY OF THESE IN A CURVE. So I'm not wrong

The problem is that the op is just showing the road.

These road are actually located in very mountainous region.

Elevation of more than 2500m.

Plying this road is way different .

As the road take turns upon turns around very high mountains.

In real life? It's fascinating.

@mybestlove. Broken white lines in the U.S. mean you are permitted to overtake a vehicle. I bet the people who painted the Milken Hill roads are unaware of that. Or maybe broken white lines means something else in Nigeria?
