Passing target: 80% (40/50)
A storm has cut the power. At the next intersection, none of the traffic signal's lights are working, and no officer is directing traffic. What should you do?
A and B approach perpendicular roads at a signal-controlled intersection. Every signal lens is dark, and no officer is present.
Correct answer: Come to a complete stop, then go as you would at an all-way stop, yielding as required.
Why
Every driver approaching a dark signal must stop, so treat each approach as having a stop sign. After stopping, yield to vehicles that are already in the intersection or that stopped before you, yield to the driver on the right if you arrive together, and watch for pedestrians. If an officer is directing traffic, follow the officer instead.
