Correct answer
Yes, where lane width makes it necessary and safety permits it.
As a general rule, do not drive along it. The exception is where lane width makes this necessary and safety permits it. This differs from crossing it briefly for a permitted manoeuvre, such as changing lanes, while respecting priority in the lane being entered. It is also incorrect to treat every solid line as uncrossable in every circumstance: regulatory exceptions exist and road-edge lines have a different meaning.
