Highway markings

[Oldguy]

I searched for this anomaly on the forums, to see if it was already mentioned, but I did not see it.

 

In the U.S., typical highway markings for two-way streets call for white paint along right-side of the usable road surface. The driver-side lane markings vary, depending on the local circumstances.

 

However, for one-way traffic lanes, the passenger side lane marking remains white, and the driver-side lane marking is painted yellow.

 

In this way, the driver can easily tell whether the road being driven on is a one-way or two-way street.

 

See, for example, page thirty of [ame]http://www.dmvnv.com/pdfforms/dlbook.pdf[/ame], which is the Nevada Driver Handbook.

 

This is easily confirmed by looking at a Google Map aerial view of any section of a US Interstate highway, such as I15, which passes through Las Vegas. Likewise, the US highway 95, also in Las Vegas, is similarly marked.

 

In the NTTR map, I frequently see the passenger side lane of one-way streets painted yellow. This is not correct.

 

Since these roads are probably textured by repeating tiles, it should be relatively simple to change this.

Did you also notice that on the divided 4-lane highways for interstate traffic has two lanes separated by a median, however the traffic on these lanes act like two independent roads with single lane traffic passing each other in opposite direction instead of two lanes parallel going one direction and two in the other.
