Narrative:
While leaving parking space to taxi to runway 10R, crossed a solid double line next to parking space. Ground control advised me to make a right turn to clear area. When leaving parking space, was not able to remain clear of line due to other parked planes. Once inside the plane where it was parked, it was not easy to see the line. I recommend a sign be placed at end of parking area. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: the double yellow line was not an ILS critical hold line. Instead it was a restricted area line. He feels that this area is not adequately marked. He didn't know that this was a restricted area and due to all the aircraft located in the parking area it is hard to see the lines.

Title: A C182 PLT TAXIED ACROSS A DOUBLE YELLOW LINE AT MRY.
Narrative: WHILE LEAVING PARKING SPACE TO TAXI TO RWY 10R, CROSSED A SOLID DOUBLE LINE NEXT TO PARKING SPACE. GND CTL ADVISED ME TO MAKE A R TURN TO CLEAR AREA. WHEN LEAVING PARKING SPACE, WAS NOT ABLE TO REMAIN CLEAR OF LINE DUE TO OTHER PARKED PLANES. ONCE INSIDE THE PLANE WHERE IT WAS PARKED, IT WAS NOT EASY TO SEE THE LINE. I RECOMMEND A SIGN BE PLACED AT END OF PARKING AREA. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: THE DOUBLE YELLOW LINE WAS NOT AN ILS CRITICAL HOLD LINE. INSTEAD IT WAS A RESTRICTED AREA LINE. HE FEELS THAT THIS AREA IS NOT ADEQUATELY MARKED. HE DIDN'T KNOW THAT THIS WAS A RESTRICTED AREA AND DUE TO ALL THE ACFT LOCATED IN THE PARKING AREA IT IS HARD TO SEE THE LINES.
