Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
You drive at 30 mph toward an intersection. The light turns from green to steady yellow. You are far enough back to stop smoothly before the stop line. What should you do?
A approaches an intersection well back from its stop line. A detail of A’s traffic signal shows a steady yellow light; no stopping route or answer position is marked.
Correct answer: Stop before the intersection, because you can do so safely
Why
A light that has been green for a long time will change soon, so be ready. If you already wait in the intersection to turn when the light goes from yellow to red, finish the turn when it is safe. Do not back up.
