de kantstreep

KANT-straypIPA [ˈkɑntstreːp]

mv. kantstrepen

Translation

edge line

The white line marking the edge of the carriageway. What lies beyond is verge or hard shoulder and is not part of the carriageway: driving, overtaking or queue-jumping there is not allowed. A broken edge line lets a driveway or lay-by through; a solid edge line is part of the road marking and is no invitation to use the verge.

How it sounds in the exam
