You must not pass a vehicle on the left under which condition?

Center-line markings tell you when passing is allowed. A solid yellow center line in your lane means no passing, because you would be crossing into oncoming traffic where visibility or space is limited. That’s why you must not pass on the left when your lane has a solid yellow center line. The other conditions don’t automatically prohibit passing: being on a divided highway can still allow passing in the appropriate lane, the road being wet only adds risk but doesn’t by itself forbid passing if you can do so safely, and a dashed white line ahead indicates lane changes are permitted where allowed, not a blanket no-passing rule.
