Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
You are stopped at a steady red light on a one-way street. You want to turn left onto another one-way street whose traffic moves to your left. No sign prohibits turns on red. What may you do?
A has stopped at a red circular light where one one-way street meets a two-lane one-way street whose traffic goes left. No turn route is selected.
Correct answer: Turn left after a full stop, yielding to pedestrians and other traffic
Why
Check for NO TURN ON RED signs and for a red arrow; either one means you may not turn. Before you turn, look both ways and watch for motorcycles, bicycles, mopeds and pedestrians. If you drive in another state, learn its rules, because they can be different.
