I don't believe this is true as I already posted what it states in the Alberta Regulations:

Quote:
15(3) Notwithstanding subsection (1) and unless prohibited by a traffic control device, a person driving a vehicle may, whether within or outside of an urban area, drive the vehicle on a highway so as to cross a single solid line or, if outside an urban area, a double solid line for the following purposes:

(a) when necessary to turn left onto a highway or into a private road or driveway;

(b) when necessary on entering the highway from a private road or driveway;

(c) when necessary to enter a parking lane on the right side of the centre line.

If it is a double yellow in an urban area you can not cross it. If it is a double yellow outside an urban area you can cross to make a left turn or to enter the lane from a roadway or driveway. If it is a single yellow in an urban area you can cross it to make a left turn or to enter the lane.
