Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
A traffic signal facing you is steady red. What is the basic required response?

Correct answer: Stop and wait unless a lawful turn on red is allowed.

Stop at the clearly marked stop line. If there is none, stop before the near-side crosswalk; if there is no crosswalk, stop before entering the intersection. Remain stopped unless a permitted movement can be made after yielding and obeying any restriction.
