Final answer:

Two solid yellow lines mark the center of the road on four or more lane roads with opposite-direction traffic. These lines indicate no passing zones to preserve traffic safety. The safety of crossing animals is contingent on multiple factors involving vehicle behavior and speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

When there are four or more lanes with traffic moving in opposite directions, two solid yellow lines mark the center of the road for traffic going in opposite directions. These lines signal to drivers that crossing these lines to pass another vehicle is forbidden due to oncoming traffic. It's crucial for safety that drivers understand and respect this rule to prevent head-on collisions.

The lines also help maintain the orderly flow of traffic by clearly defining the lanes designated for vehicles traveling in different directions.

In the context of the question, it is not explicitly mentioned if the car's movement affects the safety of a rabbit trying to cross the roadway. However, generally speaking, when vehicles follow the rules of the road and remain within their marked lanes, it can reduce the risk of accidents.

It's worth noting that whether a rabbit can safely cross all 3 lanes of a freeway safely would depend on a variety of factors, including the speed and attention of drivers, as well as the presence of any traffic control devices.
