Passing target: 80% (32/40)
Your light turns green, but traffic on the far side of the intersection is backed up, and there is no room for your car past the crosswalk. What does the Tennessee driver manual tell you to do?
A faces green while the far side of the intersection is queued to the crosswalk. There is no receiving space for A.
Correct answer: Wait behind the stop line until there is room to clear the whole intersection.
Why
A vehicle left in the intersection when the light changes blocks cross traffic and emergency vehicles, and the driver can get a ticket. Wait until the car ahead has moved far enough for your whole vehicle to fit. The rule applies whether or not a DO NOT BLOCK INTERSECTION sign is posted.
