It has to. Not every solid white line is sensibly painted, especially if it's on an old road.

In many parts of Europe, a solid white line is legally equivalent to a brick wall and absolutely must not be crossed.
Yes, but Waymo doesn't run in Europe and it will probably take a decade of negotiations with local cabbies before they are allowed to drive there.

I would be SHOCKED if there was nowhere in Europe where painted road markings make navigation legally impossible. There are a lot of roads and not that many painters.
