Magnetic lines do not intersect one-another because:
they are in the same direction
they are at a distance
they are parallel to one another
in the point of intersection there will be two direction of the magnetic field, which is impossible
A
they are parallel to one another

Each point on the magnetic line gives the direction of the magnetic
field. If two field lines intersect then there will be two direction of
magnetic field at that particular point which is impossible.
