Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
At 2 a.m. you stop at a steady red light. You want to go straight. The cross street is empty, and the light stays red for a long time. What should you do?
At night A waits before the intersection at a steady red signal. The cross street is empty. The scene contains no elapsed-time marker, selected path or after-answer halo.
Correct answer: Stay stopped until the light turns green, then go when the way is clear
Why
Stop before the stop line or the crosswalk. After the stop, a right turn on red is legal unless a sign forbids it, and a left turn on red is legal only from a one-way street onto a one-way street. If a signal is dark because it has no power, treat it as a STOP sign.
