What do arrows painted on the carriageway indicate?

Correct answer

The proximity of a continuous line.

Arrows painted on the carriageway, such as the one shown in this image, indicate that a continuous line is approaching. Their purpose is to warn drivers that they are approaching a section of road where overtaking will be prohibited or where the lane is going to narrow or end. These arrows provide advance warning so that drivers can adjust their position on the road and prepare for the upcoming continuous line, ensuring safe and orderly driving.
