Passing target: 80% (32/40)
You are first in line at the stop line, waiting to turn left. Your light is steady green with no arrow. An oncoming car is close and going straight, and the car behind it has its right turn signal on. What should you do?
A is at the stop line to turn left on a steady circular green. Oncoming B goes straight; C follows and signals right, as stated by the neutral callout.
Correct answer: Wait for both oncoming cars, then turn when there is a safe gap
Why
A left turn on a circular green is a permitted turn, not a protected one. Before you turn, yield to oncoming traffic that goes straight or turns right and to pedestrians in your path. While you wait, keep your wheels straight: if a car hits you from behind while your wheels are turned, it can push you into oncoming traffic.
