When entering a roundabout in Alberta, who has the right of way?
Answer: Traffic already circulating in the roundabout
Vehicles already in the roundabout have the right of way in Alberta. Drivers entering the roundabout must yield to circulating traffic and wait for a safe gap before proceeding.
In Alberta, when you are turning right at a red light, who must you yield to?
Answer: All traffic with a green light, pedestrians in the crosswalk, and cyclists
When turning right on a red light in Alberta, you must yield to all traffic that has a green light, all pedestrians crossing in the crosswalk, and any cyclists in the intersection or approaching it.
At an intersection with a yield sign in Alberta, what are you required to do?
Answer: Slow down and be prepared to stop, yielding to all traffic that has the right of way
A yield sign requires you to slow down and be prepared to stop if necessary. You must yield the right of way to traffic already in the intersection or approaching closely enough to be a hazard.
In Alberta, what should you do if you enter an intersection on a green light but traffic ahead prevents you from clearing the intersection?
Answer: Do not enter the intersection until you can clear it completely
You must not enter an intersection unless you can clear it completely. Blocking an intersection is illegal in Alberta and can cause gridlock and dangerous conditions for cross traffic.
When two vehicles facing each other at an intersection both want to turn left, how should they proceed in Alberta?
Answer: Both turn at the same time, passing in front of each other (left side to left side)
When two opposing vehicles are both turning left, they should pass each other left side to left side (driver's window to driver's window) and then complete their turns.
In Alberta, what must you do when a pedestrian is crossing at an intersection with no crosswalk markings?
Answer: You must yield to the pedestrian because unmarked crosswalks exist at all intersections
In Alberta, unmarked crosswalks legally exist at every intersection. Drivers must yield to pedestrians crossing at intersections even when there are no painted crosswalk lines.
