A storm has cut the power, and the traffic signal at your intersection is completely dark. No officer is directing traffic. What must you do?
A approaches from the west while B is at the south stop line of a four-way intersection. All traffic signal faces are dark and no officer is present.
Correct answer: Stop as you would at a stop sign, yield as required, and go only when it is safe.
Why
After the stop, the normal stop-sign rules apply: yield to vehicles and pedestrians in or near the intersection and take turns with other drivers. If a signal still shows green or yellow but does not work properly, you may proceed with caution. If an officer directs traffic, follow the officer.
