Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
Your signal is a flashing yellow left-turn arrow. Oncoming traffic is approaching. What must you do before turning?

Correct answer: Yield to oncoming cars and pedestrians, then turn.
Why
A flashing yellow arrow means the turn is permitted after yielding to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. Oncoming drivers may have a green light. Assess the gap and proceed cautiously only when the turn is safe.
