White lines mark road lanes. The white broken lines in the center of a two lane highway means its ok to pass the car in front of you if there is no oncomiing traffic. A solid white ine in the middle of the highway means i do not cross from your land. The solid white line on the right or passangers side of the roadd, seperates the lane from the shoulder of the road.

Dotted means you can pass and solid means you can not pass. Not entirely accurate: In New York State - "you may pass other vehicles or change lanes, but should only do so if obstructions on the road make it necessary or traffic conditions require it" - from the DMV website
