What are examples of intersecting lines in the real world?

How are skew different from parallel lines?
Skew lines do not lie in the same plane. Parallel lines do lie in the same plane. That's the difference. Neither of them are intersecting, so it can be confusing. Think of 2 highways that 'cross' with an overpass. While a highway is not a 'line' this should help you to understand. The 2 highways do not intersect; one goes 'under' and one goes 'over', so they are skew. This is different than two roads that have an intersection, with a traffic light or stop sign. Even the 'road' term is the same as the Math term!

Can you park on a grass verge when the road has double yellow lines on it?
The yellow lines refer to parking controls on UK roads. When double yellow lines are in force, you can't. (note that double yellow lines are not always operational at all times. The restriction prevents parking on or adjacent to double yellow lines. There is no mention in the regulations about which side of the yellow lines and therefore they are effective for vehicles parked on pavements or verges. Look at the Highway code text next to the pictures of double yellow lines in the Road Markings section.

How would a person drive correctly if there were no solid or dash lines on the road?
Well, in the US, we do have roads with no center markings. You stay as far right as possible without sliding off the berm. In many rural areas with no center markings, vehicles slow and stop to let another driver pass on narrow roads or one lane bridges. But without solid or dash lines---as was the norm in many communities pre-1950s, drivers took their chances about when and where to pass. There were many head on collisions, many deaths. So the solid yellow, double solid yellow, and broken dash yellow were devised as common visual reminders of how drivers should behave in different situations.
