Two continuous lines down the middle of the road indicate that you should not pass on that section of road. Most often, this is because visibility is limited on that stretch of highway.
Yellow lines of all types indicate the leftmost edge of where you can drive in a certain direction. A double solid yellow line may not be crossed except when making a left-hand turn to either leave or join the road divided by said line. A single yellow line on a two-lane, two-way road serves the same purpose. Some jurisdictions use yellow lines on one-way roadways or divided highways to indicate the left edge of the roadway.
A solid yellow line next to a broken yellow line means that vehicles next to the broken line may pass. The yellow lines define the road as two way, traffic opposing each other. The side of the road with the solid yellow line facing it is a no-passing zone, while the opposite side of the road, with the intermittent line facing it, passing is permitted.
You must not stay on your side of the rode without passing to the other side, as long as its solid.

Is a solid yellow line to my left on the road means what
A two lane roadway usually has a yellow dotted line down the center separating traffic lanes. When the line changes to a solid line, it means "No Passing". If the solid line is to the right of center then that lane has a "No Passing" restriction. When there is a double yellow line, there is "No Passing" in either direction.

A broken yellow line indicates that you may pass using the opposite lane of traffic, whereas a solid yellow line indicates no passing. If the broken line is on your side, you can pass but cars traveling in the opposite direction can't. Usually the lay of the land (blind curves, hills, etc.) or anything else that would limit the drivers' view of the road up ahead determines whether or not passing is authorized.
Lane markings on roads are very important; they let the driver know the rules of the road. Solid centerlines usually yellow or white indicate the driver should not cross the line and stick to their side of the road to prevent accidents.
