Correct answer
It indicates the edge of the carriageway.
On a road like the one shown, a broken line on the right-hand side of the carriageway indicates its edge. This line is important because it gives drivers a clear visual reference for the carriageway limits, which is particularly useful in conditions of poor visibility or on roads where the edge is not marked by physical barriers. It helps keep vehicles within the safe limits of the road and prevents them from accidentally leaving the carriageway.
