In Alberta, who has the right of way when a vehicle is exiting a driveway onto a road?
Answer: Traffic on the road and pedestrians on the sidewalk
Vehicles exiting a driveway must yield to all traffic on the road and all pedestrians on the sidewalk. The driver leaving the driveway must wait until the way is clear.
What does a flashing green light or green arrow at an intersection mean in Alberta?
Answer: You have a protected turn in the direction of the arrow — oncoming traffic has a red light
A flashing green light or green arrow indicates a protected or advanced turn phase. Oncoming traffic has a red signal, so you may turn without yielding to oncoming vehicles, though you must still watch for pedestrians.
In Alberta, if the traffic lights go out at an intersection, how should drivers treat it?
Answer: As an all-way stop — every vehicle must stop before proceeding
When traffic lights are not functioning at an intersection in Alberta, all drivers must treat the intersection as an all-way stop. Each vehicle must come to a complete stop and proceed in order of arrival.
At an intersection with both a stop sign and a traffic signal in Alberta, which should you obey?
Answer: The traffic signal takes priority when it is functioning
When both a stop sign and a traffic signal are present, the functioning traffic signal takes priority. The stop sign is there as a backup for when the signal is not working.
In Alberta, what should you do at an intersection where your lane has a dedicated right-turn lane with a 'RIGHT TURN ONLY' sign?

If you are in a lane marked 'Right Turn Only,' you must turn right. If you need to go straight or turn left, you must be in the appropriate lane before reaching the intersection.
