Technically you can and can't, if you're driving down a any road with a continuous double yellow line (not broken) you can never pass (even if there's not a car in sight going the other direction but people tend to get annoyed and will pass only if there's not a cop around). On the other hand if you driving down a STRAIGHT road, and there is a broken line on your side with a continuous solid line on the other side of it, you CAN pass (See below link).

Double yellow continuous lines means stay in your lane, which is the right hand lane on a 2-lane road in the United States. You are not permitted to cross double yellow continuous lines. In some jurisdictions, the police will ticket you if your tire even comes close to or touches the double yellow lines because you are encroaching on the opposite lane's space.
